We aim to compare the effectiveness of cranberry capsules versus nitrofurantoin prophylaxis in preventing urinary tract infections (UTIs) after urogynecologic surgery by conducting a double-blinded randomized clinical trial involving women with pelvic organ prolapse and/or urinary incontinence scheduled to have surgery with the Urogynecologists who comprise the Brigham and Women's Urogynecology Group.

The primary outcome will be treatment for clinically suspected or culture-proven UTI in the cranberry capsule group versus the nitrofurantoin group within 4 weeks (28 days) after surgery.
