About this trial

Investigate the effect of dietary supplements/probiotic ASTARTE™ ( L. crispatus, L. rhamnosus, L. jensenii, L. gasseri) on the microbiome composition in the intestine and vagina and thereby a reduction of risk factors for the development of rUTI during 6 months of intervention in women aged 18-40 years. This is measured by the incidence of symptomatic UTI.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Reduction of UTI cases

Number of symptomatic urinary tract infection cases during the intervention compared to the number of UTI cases before the intervention (\> 2 UTIs per year). Measured from a urine sample.

Time frame
6 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Number of UTI after intervention

Number of symptomatic urinary tract infection cases during the intervention compared to the number of UTI cases after the intervention. Measured from a urine sample.
