  1. I did not know that almost 80% of UTI’s happen just 24 hours after having intercourse or that they could leave permanent kidney damage if not treated. I thought there maybe could have been some more facts in the PSA, like the symptoms of a UTI?

  2. Really good job on your assignment! I obviously do not have personal experience UTIs but i know any woman having this trouble and not sure whats happening or what to do next after being diagnosed with a UTI. I really was informed and enjoyed it. Wonderful work!

  3. College-aged women often face health issues like UTIs and kidney disease, which can impact their daily lives. While focusing on overall health, they also seek the best face wash in Pakistan to maintain clear and healthy skin. Proper skincare, along with medical care, helps them stay confident and healthy. Prioritizing both skin and internal health is essential.
