Gabriel addresses recurring UTIs with comprehensive approach beyond repeated antibiotics: 1) Identify root cause (biofilms, incomplete emptying, hormonal, anatomical), 2) Biofilm disruption (bacteria hide in biofilms—hard to eradicate), 3) Bladder lining support, 4) Prevent bacterial adhesion (D-mannose, cranberry), 5) Vaginal/urogenital health (especially post-menopause), 6) Immune support, 7) Probiotics (vaginal and gut), 8) Lifestyle modifications.

Goal: break cycle of infection-antibiotics-reinfection.
Standard Treatment
Antibiotics for acute UTI (trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, nitrofurantoin, ciprofloxacin), Prophylactic low-dose antibiotics (for recurring UTIs—but creates resistance), Vaginal estrogen (post-menopause—appropriate), Investigate for anatomical abnormalities if frequent recurrence.
The Problem
Repeated antibiotic courses create antibiotic resistance (major problem), antibiotics kill beneficial vaginal/gut flora (increases recurrence risk), doesn't address biofilms (bacteria hide in bladder wall biofilms—antibiotics don't penetrate), prophylactic antibiotics have side effects and create resistance, doesn't optimize vaginal health (lactobacilli protective), minimal emphasis on prevention strategies (D-mannose, cranberry proven effective), doesn't address hormonal factors (post-menopausal atrophy major risk factor—vaginal estrogen should be first-line), doesn't investigate pelvic floor dysfunction or incomplete emptying.

Adequate hydration (water dilutes urine, flushes bacteria—8-10 glasses/day), unsweetened cranberry juice, avoid bladder irritants: caffeine, alcohol, artificial sweeteners, spicy foods, citrus, carbonated beverages; Reduce sugar (feeds bacteria), probiotics foods (fermented foods, yogurt with live cultures), vitamin C-rich foods, avoid holding urine too long.
Urinate after sex (flushes bacteria), wipe front to back, avoid spermicides (kill protective lactobacilli), avoid douching (disrupts vaginal flora), cotton underwear, avoid tight pants, stay hydrated, don't hold urine, complete bladder emptying (lean forward, double void), vaginal estrogen if post-menopausal (critical—prevents atrophy), probiotics (vaginal and oral), pelvic floor therapy if incomplete emptying, cranberry and D-mannose for prevention, avoid unnecessary antibiotics (create resistance).
