I drink TONS of water--I'm talking about 10 glasses a day. Thankfully I have avoided UTI issues. Maybe it's the water & the folic acid I take daily?

I had a year of one UTI after another. 2 things that helped, one was estrogen cream which my urologist prescribed and I also added a dmannose supplement .

Is there evidence that MTX causes uti, or unrelated? I’ve been on it for 3 weeks and keep feeling like an infection is starting. I hardly ever get them.
