Overview

Urinary tract infections are severe and need to be treated.The close link between lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and depression suggests that there are common risk factors that cannot be assigned entirely to the prostate. This has direct ramifications for future research as well as the evaluation and treatment of people suffering from either illness, says an article published in the journal Neurourology and Urodynamics.
