Urinary tract infections (UTI) are considered to be the most common bacterial infections, with approximately 80% of all UTIs occurring in women (1). Nearly one in three women is expected to have at least one episode of UTI by the age of 24 years and almost half of all women will experience one UTI during their lifetime (2). Recurrence affect approximately 20-30% of women with initial UTI, although recurrence rates vary widely (3).
