Swimming increases the risk of urinary tract infections in women.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
3 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that swimming increases the risk of urinary tract infections in women?

Unclear. Two sources partially support the claim: a 2022 Santa Cruz beachgoer study found higher UTI symptoms among female swimmers, and a clinician commentary notes that pool chlorine does not fully eliminate UTI risk and that moist swimwear may increase infection risk. Neither settles the general claim that swimming increases UTI risk in women.
