While St. John's Mercy Medical Center offers no specific preventive measures for men, it says women should:
- Wipe from front to back after bowel movements.
- Avoid prolonged moisture around the urethra by not wearing nylon underpants and by changing out of wet swimsuits.
- Avoid sexual positions that irritate or hurt the urethra or bladder.
- Urinate within 15 minutes of intercourse.
- Urinate when you have the urge.
