What Causes UTIs and How to Prevent Them
At IV Wellness, many of our patients come to us after experiencing repeated urinary tract infections and want to understand why they happen. A UTI can cause discomfort, frequent urination and burning sensations, and while it is very common, it is also preventable. Understanding what triggers an infection and how to care for your body plays a key role in avoiding recurrence. Our Methylene Blue IV drip is one of the ways we help support urinary health by promoting hydration and natural cleansing.
What Causes a UTI
A urinary tract infection begins when bacteria enter the urinary system, most often the bladder or urethra. The most common cause is E. coli, a type of bacteria naturally found in the digestive tract. When it reaches the urinary tract, it can multiply and cause inflammation.
Several factors can increase the likelihood of infection, including:
-
Insufficient hydration
-
Poor bathroom hygiene
-
Tight clothing or synthetic underwear
-
Hormonal changes
-
Holding urine for long periods
-
Certain medications or medical conditions
These factors create conditions where bacteria can thrive.
The Role of Hydration
Hydration is one of the most effective ways to prevent UTIs. Drinking enough water helps the kidneys flush bacteria from the urinary tract. However, when hydration is low or absorption is poor, bacteria can build up and lead to infection.
At IV Wellness, our Methylene Blue IV therapy provides direct hydration and gentle antibacterial support to help maintain urinary balance. By improving circulation and fluid intake at the cellular level, the body can clear waste more efficiently.
How IV Therapy Can Help
The Methylene Blue IV drip delivers fluids, nutrients and antibacterial compounds straight into the bloodstream, ensuring faster absorption and better distribution throughout the body. For those who suffer from frequent UTIs, regular IV hydration may help strengthen urinary function and reduce recurrence.
Our medical team tailors each treatment based on your condition and goals. We take into account your hydration levels, symptoms and medical background before recommending a personalised plan.
Lifestyle Habits to Prevent UTIs
Beyond IV therapy, small lifestyle adjustments can make a big difference. We recommend:
-
Staying well-hydrated throughout the day
-
Avoiding long periods without using the restroom
-
Wearing breathable fabrics
-
Maintaining good hygiene habits
-
Reducing excessive caffeine and sugar intake
These simple habits help keep the urinary system clean and balanced.
