376: UTIs are a gargantuan sex problem. Here’s a concrete way you can help! (ft. Meghan Blake of Good Kitty)

Worldwide, 150 million women get urinary tract infections (UTIs) yearly, and 30-44% of them get recurrent UTIs (defined as 2+ infections in 6 months, or 3+ in a year.) I was one of those women. UTIs are so prevalent that they are the second-most common reason for antibiotic prescriptions on the planet . And in case you've never had one, rest assured that UTIs are painful, disruptive, and deeply anxiety-producing. They are also, 90% of the time, contracted due to sexual intercourse. UTIs are a sex problem, which often also makes them a relationship problem. If you, as a man, has had a woman partner who was stressed about having sex out of fear of getting a UTI; a friend with serious health issues due to her gut biome being decimated by antibiotics; or a sex partner who was in tears, in despair at getting yet another one, you're far from alone. Fortunately, you be a hero to all the women in your lives by spreading the word about a solution: Good Kitty has an extremely effective prevention method. Their doctor-developed, urologist-approved formula supports good bacteria, neutralizes the bad when it matters (i.e. right after sex), and impacts the bacteria in the gut that cause UTIs, thus helping to prevent recurrence. This interview with Meghan Blake, CEO and co-founder of Good Kitty, is both entertaining sobering, enlightening, and uplifting. Also, I drop a few F-bombs, so that's always fun. ;) Real talk: Reliable UTI prevention is life-changing for both her sex life, and yours.

It was like, 'This cannot be happening to me again.'” “These can be really serious infections if they’re not treated.” “I wanted to have someone to blame.” “I know it’s him!” “Guys are really wanting to help, and do whatever they can to care.” “This is getting in the way of our sex lives, and our sex lives are the source of a lot of our joy and connection.” “I don’t want to become a celibate person because of UTIs.” “It has made my heart burst open.”
