Detailed explanation-1: -Risk factors for UTI s that are specific to women include: Female anatomy. Women have a shorter urethra than men do. As a result, there’s less distance for bacteria to travel to reach the bladder.
Detailed explanation-2: -Why are women more likely to develop UTIs than men? Women tend to get urinary tract infections more often than men because bacteria can reach the bladder more easily in women. The urethra (the opening to your urinary tract) is shorter in women than in men, so bacteria have a shorter distance to travel.
Detailed explanation-3: -Women get UTIs much more often than men. This may be because women have a shorter urethra, which may make it easier for bacteria to reach the bladder. People with diabetes may have changes in their body’s defense system, making it easier to get urinary infections.
