Why are older women more prone to UTIs?
Women become more prone to developing urinary tract infections (UTIs) as they grow older due a number of reasons, including female anatomy, hormonal changes, medications, a weaker immune system and menopause.

Is menopause to blame for my gut symptoms?
Twenty years ago, we never talked about the menopause.
