Urinary Tract Infection:

• Urinary tract infection occurs when the bacteria enter and multiply in the urinary tract
• The urinary tract consists of:
   o Kidneys

   o Bladder
   o Urethra
• Women are more prone to this infection

Symptoms to look for:

• Constant urge to urinate, although the urine passed is minimal
• Pungent smell in urine
• Burning sensation while urinating
• If untreated, it can affect the kidneys and lead to:

   o Vomiting

Causes:

• Having multiple sexual partners
• During intercourse, the penis can push the bacteria from the vagina into the urethra
• Holding urine for too long weakens the bladder. A weak bladder is unable to empty all the urine at one go
   causing infection
