Urinary Tract Infections

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are infections that are related to any parts of the urinary system such as kidneys, bladder, or urethra. Often observed in women, urinary tract infections occur in the bladder or urethra, but serious infections involve the kidney. Female anatomy, sexual activity, certain types of birth controls, menopause, urinary tract abnormalities, blockages in the urinary tract, suppressed immune system, catheter use and recent urinary procedure are the risk factors specific to women who have urinary tract infections. They are often treatable and are short-term infections. Maintaining healthy hygiene, staying hydrated, the practice of good sexual hygiene, urinating when the need arises prevents UTIs. In men, prostate problems cause urinary tract infections and sexually transmitted diseases are the most common cause of UTIs in younger men.
