Research shows that one in every five women will have a UTI at least once in their lifetime. You need to drink a lot of water to flush out the bacteria that causes UTI. Consuming Vitamin C and cranberry juice is also said to discourage the growth of bacteria as they make your urine acidic. Likewise, try not to hold your bladder for too long, too frequently.
