What are the demographics of UTI?

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) predominantly affect women, with around 50-60% experiencing at least one UTI in their lifetime, largely due to anatomical differences. They are most common in sexually active women, pregnant women, and postmenopausal women due to hormonal changes. Men can also develop UTIs, particularly older men with prostate enlargement. Additionally, UTIs are more frequent in certain populations, including individuals with Diabetes, urinary tract abnormalities, and those with compromised immune systems.
