Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are more common in women than in men, and can be serious if not treated on time. UTIs can spread to the uterus, which can affect fertility and create complications for pregnancy. UTI symptoms should be monitored closely during pregnancy as they can have serious health implications.

Causes of UTI

There can be several reasons for a UTI in women:

• Not changing pads or tampons on time during periods
• Wearing too tight underwear
• Not taking care of personal hygiene
• Not going to the toilet for a long time
• drink less water

Symptoms of a UTI

The symptoms of a UTI can include:

• Pain in the lower abdomen
• Itching in the private area
• feeling of frequent visits to the toilet
• Burning or pain when using the toilet
• Foul smell in urine
• Fatigue and nausea
• lower back pain

Tips to prevent UTI

• Drink plenty of water every day.
• Take care of personal hygiene and change pads every 5-6 hours during periods.
• Avoid wearing very tight underwear.

What to eat and what not to eat

• Include apple cider vinegar, cranberry juice, coconut water, and coriander water in your diet when you have UTI symptoms.
• Eating curd daily is also beneficial.
• Avoid tea, coffee, citrus fruits, fried and spicy foods, soda and cold drinks.

If the symptoms are mild, take care of diet and hygiene. If the symptoms persist or increase, contact a doctor immediately.
