About this trial
The objectives are to evaluate whether variations in vaginal and/or urinary and/or fecal microbiome predispose postmenopausal women to recurrent cystitis. This will be explored using comparison of microbiome profiles between those with recurrent UTI compared to age-matched women without recurrent UTI.
