Can women have urinary tract infections?

Women can have urinary tract infections. Urinary tract infections are the most common among female patients, mainly in women who get cold, have mood swings, have low immunity, and have frequent sex with newlyweds. The main reason for urinary tract infections in women is that the female urethra is short and straight, adjacent to the vagina and anus, and various factors can cause bacteria around the urethra to retrograde into the urethra and bladder, causing urinary tract infections to appear. First of all, if the body’s immunity is reduced or if there are urinary system diseases, such as urinary tract obstruction, urinary tract stones, urinary tract infections can occur. Secondly, if you do not pay attention to personal hygiene during menstruation, it can lead to bacteria entering the urethra and forming urinary tract infections. Again, usually drink less water, eat spicy, stimulating food or catch a cold, leading to urinary tract infections. Women with urinary tract infections should be treated promptly to avoid delays and the formation of chronic, recurrent and persistent infections.
