Yet a lot of times that's not even spoken about or considered.

know

it's big to your doctor it's so important because um some of my patients say to me my doctor says i don't need vaginal hormones because i'm not sexually active

And it's like, hang on, it's not just for the vagina.

It goes through into the bladder and it makes a massive difference.

And, you know, because urosepsis, as you say, is common and it's still up there, it's not reducing.

And partly because women are living longer, they're menopausal for longer, they've got low hormones for longer and they're not being given any vaginal hormones.

Exactly.

And they're not told.

They're not told.

No, of course not.

No one's told anything.

But also people on contraceptives that can often, because it's synthetic hormones, often can increase someone's incidence and risk of having urinary tract infections.

So anybody of any age actually can use vaginal hormones.

And once you start using them, it should really continue as well.

But also systemic hormones can really prime our immune system.

So the hormones help our immune system to work effectively.

Because there's one thing avoiding an infection.

But if you have one, you want to make sure that your body is really fit to fight it.

So it doesn't take a halt in developing sepsis.
