The Urology Care Foundation notes that different bacteria live on the skin or around the rectum and vagina. When the bacteria enter the urethra, they can travel to the bladder.

According to the NIDDK, the body usually flushes out the bacteria before they reach a person’s bladder. However, in some cases, the body is unable to do so, resulting in a UTI.

UTIs most commonly occur due to the following bacteria:

People of any age and sex can develop a UTI. However, some people are more at risk than others.

The following factors can increase the likelihood of developing a UTI:

The NIDDK notes that females are more likely to develop UTIs than males. This is because females have a shorter urethra, meaning the bacteria have less distance to travel to the bladder.

Additionally, the urethra is closer to the rectum, where the UTI-causing bacteria are present.

Going through menopause and using birth control methods, such as diaphragms or spermicide, can also increase the chance of developing a UTI.

According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, pregnant people have a higher risk of UTIs than other people.

Changes in the body during pregnancy can cause changes in the urinary tract.

Males share the same risk factors for developing a UTI. However, having an enlarged prostate is a male-specific risk factor.
