What specific UTI prevention strategies should women who use catheters follow?

Women using catheters should practice meticulous hygiene, always wiping from front to back after toileting. Choose the right catheter size and type for comfort and effectiveness. Consider using catheters with antimicrobial coatings. Urinate before and after sexual activity if possible. Some women find cranberry supplements helpful, but consult your doctor first. Regular check-ups with your healthcare provider can help monitor for early signs of UTIs.
