Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

Known to be a painful condition, Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are a common condition that affects women at some point in their lives.

Most studies have shown that women are more affected than men and children. Thus, looking for safety and precautionary measures is crucial for the overall well-being of everyone.

Being among the most common types of infection in the urinary system of an individual, bacteria like E.coli are involved. This could lead to disruption of the daily routine due to its symptoms including fatigue.

By the end of this comprehensive guide, you will be able to learn all about UTIs and their management. 

Understanding UTIs

Urinary tract infection is an infection that affects any part of the urinary system and consists of 4 parts:

  • Kidney  (filters blood to remove wastes and changes it into urine.)
  • Ureters (tubes that take urine from the kidney to the bladder.)
  • Bladder (a short-term storage space for urine.)
  • Urethra (tube responsible for taking urine out of the body via bladder.)

Unfortunately, today, about 50% of the female population suffers from this condition at least once in their lifetime.  This is because the distance between the urethra and the bladder is shorter compared to men. 

Moreover, the urethral opening is much closer to the rectum in the female body. This makes them much more vulnerable. 

Thus, it makes it convenient for bacterial colonizers to reach the bladder and cause more health hazards. 

Causes of UTIs 

 

Urinary Tract Infections are caused by several factors, including the following listed:

  • Sexual intercourse
  • Stones or other conditions that block the urinary tract
  • Inability to empty the bladder completely
  • Pregnancy
  • Weak immune system
  • Not maintaining genital hygiene
  • Insufficient fluids

These are just the tip of the iceberg, hence being aware of the dangers that could lead to this is a must.  However, you can prevent or cure them by following the safety measures.

Overall Inputs

UTIs are caused by poor hygiene because bacteria get into the urethra and spread to the bladder. 

This is especially common among the female population due to the different body structure from that of the males.

However, it can easily be avoided by following several measures, including hygiene and water intake maintenance.
