Why Do I Keep Getting UTIs? Recurrent UTI Causes & Ayurveda
A urinary tract infection may clear with appropriate treatment, only to return weeks or months later. If this happens repeatedly, it may be considered a recurrent UTI.Recurrent urinary tract infections are generally defined as two or more UTIs within six months or three or more within 12 months. Women are affected considerably more often because of anatomical and hormonal factors, although recurring UTIs in men can require particular investigation. Modern medicine looks for factors such as bacterial reinfection, menopause, incomplete bladder emptying, urinary stones, diabetes or structural urinary problems. Ayurveda links such infections to compromised immunity and disturbances in the Mutravaha Srotas (urinary channels), associated with aggravated Pitta Dosha, which generates heat. A holistic approach addresses root causes through diet, lifestyle, digestion, and doshic rebalancing to control recurrence. TL;DR – What Should You Know About Recurrent UTIs?
