Relationship between urinary tract infection and contraceptive methods.

To investigate the relationship between urinary tract infection (UTI) and contraceptive methods, a comparative survey of contraceptive methods and frequency of intercourse was conducted among young women with and without confirmed UTI. Women with a documented UTI had more frequent intercourse than those without infection. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between frequency of intercourse and UTI. When frequency of intercourse was statistically controlled for, there were no significant differences between those with and those without UTI regarding the type of contraceptive method used.
