Determinants of Estrogen Prescriptions for Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections
ABSTRACT Introduction Vaginal estrogen is a highly effective, evidence‐based prevention method for postmenopausal women with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), yet studies suggest its underutilization by non‐specialist providers. Guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), this study examined adoption, fidelity, and
