Why women are more prone to UTIs than men: key causes, risks, and prevention strategies
Women are significantly more prone to UTIs than men due to anatomical factors like a shorter urethra and its proximity to the rectum, alongside sensitive tissue. Hormonal changes, sexual activity, and certain contraceptives further increase this risk. Understanding these causes and adopting preventive measures can help manage urinary health and reduce infection frequency.
