Study Summary

The medical field is beginning to adopt treatments that alter an individual's microbiome to improve patient health; however, this approach has not been adopted for treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Here, the investigators propose the first step in development of such a therapy. If the investigators hypothesis is correct, the investigators could change the first line of treatment for hypoestrogenic women and develop future therapies that modulate bacteria in the bladder to improve not only LUTS but also treatment response. This could lead to the first treatment for lower urinary disorders that incorporates a person's individual microbiome.

Primary Outcome

The relative abundance of Lactobacillus to total microbes per sample was measured before and after treatment. The within-participant change in relative abundance of Lactobacillus was calculated subtracting pre-treatment from post-treatment.
