    Recurrent UTIs are defined by having more than two infections within 6 months or three infections within 1 year. Recurrent UTIs are also common and education on strategies to prevent recurrent UTIs is very important in order to reduce exposure to multiple antibiotic courses, which can lead to antibiotic resistance over time.
