Prioritize Your Urinary Tract Health This Autumn

Because urinary tract infections are often discussed more in spring and summer, it can quickly create the impression that they are a seasonal occurrence. While it’s true that the urinary tract is more exposed to the risk of infections during the summer months, urinary tract or bladder infections can occur in all seasons, and it’s a misconception to think that they will disappear with the end of summer.

The transition from summer to autumn brings shorter days with less sunlight and a drop in temperatures, which already puts stress on our bodies. Early autumn weather is often still quite dry and warm, inviting us to spend our days outdoors. However, we tend to wear light summer clothing and often open-toed shoes. The surfaces we sit on are no longer as warm as in summer, and because we are underdressed or underfooted, we can quickly feel chilly, leaving our legs cold.

Don’t let those warm autumn afternoons fool you!

Think prevention. When heading out in autumn, always ensure you dress in layers. Bring a jacket, sweater, or other warm clothing to put on when the temperature drops. Also, make sure to wear appropriate footwear, as cold feet combined with insufficient warmth often coincide with the first signs of urinary tract infections (e.g., frequent urge to urinate, changes in urine color, sensations of stinging or pain). In particular, women are especially prone to these infections due to their anatomical characteristics.

What can we do for urinary health?

In addition to appropriate clothing, it’s important to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Drink enough fluids, at least 1.5 to 2 liters a day, preferably water, to help flush the urinary tract. Don’t hold in urine and ensure regular and complete bladder emptying. Make sure to empty your bladder right after sexual intercourse. Use suitable soaps for intimate hygiene and wear cotton underwear

The most common cause of urinary tract infections is the bacteria E. coli. To prevent worsening in the event of an infection, it’s important to recognize the first signs and take action promptly. Don’t let urinary tract infections disrupt your plans.
