thinking involves hypothetical

DEFINITION OF TERMS

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) - A urinary tract infection, or UTI, is an infection in any part of your
urinary system, which includes your kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra.
If you're a woman, your chance of getting a urinary tract infection is high. Some experts rank
your lifetime risk of getting one as high as 1 in 2, with many women having repeat infections,
sometimes for years. About 1 in 10 men will get a UTI in their lifetime.

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) - Anyone can get a urinary tract infection, but they are more
common in women. This is because the urethra (tube the carries urine out of the body) in
females is shorter and closer to the anus, where E. coli bacteria are common. Older adults also
are at higher risk for developing cystitis. This increased risk may be due to incomplete emptying
of the bladder. There are several medical conditions that can be related to this, including an
enlarged prostate or a bladder prolapse (a condition where the bladder falls or slips out of its
usual position).

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) - UTI happens when any part of your urinary system – your
kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra – becomes infected by bacteria. You are more prone to
UTIs during pregnancy due to changes in your hormones, which slows the flow of urine. As a
result, bacteria have more time to grow in your urine before being flushed out. Also, as the
uterus grows, the increased weight can block the flow of urine from your bladder, causing an
infection.
