How do I treat recurring UTIs ?

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection of the urinary system, which includes the urethra, bladder, ureters and kidneys. UTIs can be caused by any trauma or chemical irritation to the urethral opening (perhaps from intercourse, manual stimulation or using diaphragms, catheters, douches, deodorant sprays or spermicides). Menopause or a weakened immune system can also make a woman more susceptible to UTIs.

What does a routine Pap smear show ?

  • Pap tests, usually part of a regular pelvic exam, find abnormal cervical cells that may become cancerous or indicate the presence of cancer.
  • Cells are collected from the cervix (the lower, narrow end of the uterus), and placed on a glass slide and sent to a lab for examination.
  • It doesn’t test for human papillomavirus (HPV), although it may detect cellular changes due to HPV.
  • Through regular Pap tests, cervical cancer can be prevented or detected at a very early stage. When the cancer is confined to the cervix, the five-year survival rate is more than 90%.
