What is a UTI?

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection that affects your urinary system—often causing pain, urgency, or a burning feeling when you urinate. It’s one of the most common infections treated today, with over 8 million cases in the U.S. each year.

Around 60% of women and 12% of men will experience a UTI at least once during their lifetime. It’s uncomfortable, but treatable—and we’re here to help you feel better, fast.

Causes of Urinary Tract Infections

UTIs happen when bacteria enter the urinary tract—but several everyday factors can increase your risk:

  • Not emptying the bladder fully during urination
  • Wiping from back to front after using the bathroom
  • Sexual activity, especially without urinating afterward
  • Hormonal changes, including pregnancy or menopause
  • Using certain types of birth control, like diaphragms or spermicides
  • A weakened immune system
  • Urinary catheters or recent urologic procedures
  • Blockages in the urinary tract, like kidney stones

Don’t wait for symptoms to worsen—connect with a trusted urinary tract infection online doctor today for fast, affordable care.

Preventing UTIs

While not every UTI is preventable, small daily habits can reduce your risk of infection:

  • Drink plenty of water to flush out bacteria
  • Don’t hold your urine—go when you feel the urge
  • Wipe front to back after using the bathroom
  • Urinate after sexual activity
  • Avoid irritating feminine products like douches or scented sprays
  • Choose breathable, cotton underwear and avoid tight-fitting clothing
  • Take showers instead of baths when possible
  • Manage chronic conditions like diabetes that may increase your risk

How Are UTIs Treated?

UTIs are typically treated with antibiotics, and the type of medication depends on your symptoms, medical history, and whether the infection is considered simple or more complex. One of our licensed providers will determine the best option for you.

Common treatments for a simple UTI include:

  • Nitrofurantoin (Macrobid)
  • Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim)
  • Cephalosporins (like cefdinir or cefpodoxime)

Alternative options for those with allergies or resistance may include:

  • Fluoroquinolones (Ciprofloxacin or Levofloxacin)
  • Amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin)

For complicated UTIs, extended courses may involve:

  • Fluoroquinolones
  • Bactrim
  • Augmentin
  • Cephalosporins

Frequently Asked Questions

Most UTIs start to feel better within a few days of treatment, but more serious or complicated infections can take longer to clear. Everyone’s body is different, so healing times can vary. The sooner you begin care, the faster your provider can help you get back to feeling like yourself.

It’s best to avoid sexual activity while you have a UTI. Sex can worsen symptoms, spread bacteria, and delay healing. Wait until you’ve completed treatment and your symptoms have fully cleared.

Some very mild UTIs may resolve on their own, but most require antibiotics to be fully resolved. Leaving a UTI untreated can lead to more serious complications, including kidney infections. Fast, reliable treatment is the safest choice.
