Detailed explanation-1: -UTIs typically occur when bacteria outside the body enter the urinary tract through the urethra and begin to multiply. Most cases of cystitis are caused by a type of Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteria. But other types of bacteria can cause infections, too.
Detailed explanation-2: -Women are particularly at risk for UTIs because their urethra sits close to the anus, where E. coli is present. It’s also shorter than a man’s, giving the bacteria easier access to the bladder, where the majority of UTIs occur, and the rest of the urinary tract.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cystitis is usually caused by a bacterial infection, although it sometimes happens when the bladder is irritated or damaged for another reason.
Detailed explanation-4: -This type of UTI is usually caused by Escherichia coli (E. coli). E. coli is a type of bacteria commonly found in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. But sometimes other bacteria are the cause. Having sex also may lead to a bladder infection, but you don’t have to be sexually active to develop one.
Detailed explanation-5: -Guidelines recommend three options for first-line treatment of acute uncomplicated cystitis: fosfomycin, nitrofurantoin, and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (in regions where the prevalence of Escherichia coli resistance does not exceed 20 percent).
