Hello-
Yes, the hormonal changes that occur during menopause can contribute to increased UTIs. The good news is there are things that can be done to help with this. To begin with making sure that the tissues around the urethra are healthy is important to overall vaginal health, which in turn may decrease the occurrence of UTIs. One recommendation to start is to moisturize these tissues using a pH balanced moisturizer, such as Gennev's Vaginal Dryness Intimate Moisture.
