Why are most UTI products owned by men?

Over 90% of UTI products & antibiotic distribution firms are owned and operated by men! While UTIs do impact men, the overwhelming majority who suffer from UTIs are women—yet women don’t run companies that impact their health! What’s crazier is that women weren’t included in clinical trials until 1993. THAT WAS CRAZY TO CHRISTINE AND ERICA! Women should be making products for women’s health.

CRANEL is a women-founded, owned, and operated business!
