Is there a connection between bubble baths and Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)?
• Some doctors instruct their female patients to avoid taking bubble baths to prevent vaginal irritation. The chemicals and fragrances in some bubble bath mixtures can cause irritation to the skin in the urethro-vaginal region. However, bubble baths will not cause a urinary tract infection (UTI). To avoid any potential issues if you are prone to urinary or vaginal health conditions, it is probably best to avoid bubble baths altogether.
