Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common urinary disorder that affects both sexes. This disorder has a very strong and direct effect on the quality of the personal and social life of patients. Some recent studies have shown that urine and the urinary tract are not sterile and contain special microbiota (communities of special microorganisms found in and on an individual). Thus, this review aimed to answer the question of whether microbiota can lead to an overactive bladder.
