A UTI is an infection in the urinary tract. Infections are caused by microbesâorganisms too small to be seen without a microscope. Bacteria are the most common cause of UTIs. Normally, bacteria that enter the urinary tract are quickly removed by the body before they cause symptoms.
Urinary tract infections are virtually always caused when bacteria that are normally present on the skin or in GI tract make their way into the urinary system. UTIs are very common among women; about 50 to 60 percent of adult women have had at least one UTI.
