A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection that can affect any part of the urinary system, including the kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra. UTIs are more common in women, largely due to anatomical differences such as a shorter urethra. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment—typically with antibiotics—are crucial for relieving symptoms and preventing potential complications.
