NCT ID NCT05895578
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether taking a probiotic (a 'good' bacteria) can help women who get frequent urinary tract infections (UTIs). About 90 women with a history of repeat UTIs will take either a probiotic or a placebo (a dummy pill) for 6 months. The goal is to see if the probiotic reduces the number of infections and changes the bacteria in the urinary tract.
