Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Women get UTIs more often because a woman’s urethra (the tube from the bladder to where the urine comes out of the body) is shorter than a man’s. This makes it easier for bacteria to get into the bladder.
Detailed explanation-2: -A woman’s urethra is shorter than a man’s, allowing bacteria better access to the bladder. A woman’s urethral opening is also close to sources of bacteria from the anus and vagina. Sexual activity can move bacteria to the urethral opening.
