Overview
Recurrent UTIs are more common than you think: - 7 million females experience a UTI each year in the USA - 30-44% will have a UTI recurrence - 1 in 2 females will experience a UTI in their lifetime - 85% of all UTI diagnoses are in females - UTI is the most common adult bacterial infection globally - Standard UTI testing is inaccurate in at least 50% of cases - $1Billion is spent annually on UTI healthcare in the USA alone Although the inaccuracies of standard UTI testing methods are well documented, guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of recurrent and chronic UTI are virtually non-existent. The inadequacy of guidelines and testing has created a two-pronged problem: - Practitioners do not have the resources or guidance required to assist females stuck in the cycle of chronic UTI - Females who suffer from recurrent and chronic UTI are left with long term, debilitating symptoms, and no hope for permanent treatment At Live UTI Free we recognize the need for better access to information on both sides of this equation, and we strive to provide an actionable resource for females to pursue better testing and better treatment. In the process, we are creating the most comprehensive global database of the patient perspective around recurrent and chronic UTI.
