The Burning Problem in Women's Health
Why do we know so little about one of the most common health complaints?
More than half of all women around the world will develop a urinary tract infection at some point in their lives. For most, the infection will be mild, but for some, it can be quite serious, moving into the kidney’s and even leading to sepsis if not properly treated. However, there’s still widespread debate over the best way to treat UTIs. With a panel of experts, Claudia Hammond delves into the latest evidence on why UTIs are such a persistent and common health problem, the current discussion around the best methods for treatment, and looks into what the future might hold for this burning problem in women’s health.
