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.
Ascending infection: Ascending infections are the most common cause of urinary tract infections. As the female urethra is short and intestinal bacteria tend to colonize the perineum and vulva, women tend more often than men to urinary tract infections.
