what can cause UTI(hemorrhagic cystitis)?

Question:

Answers:
UTIs are generally caused by a bacteria called E. Coli. Females are more likely to get them than males for several reasons. E. Coli is a bacteria in human feces. The distance between your anus and vagina is a small area. This is why women are told to wipe from front to back and should clean a baby girl that way also. Reason 2, is why you should wash your hands after the restroom. The length of a female urethra is shorter than a man's. Think of the urethra as the drainage hose from the bladder, which is a reservoir. EC is an opportunistic bug. If your immune system is down, your urine pH level has changed, EC will take advantage of that and crawl up your urethra into your bladder and wha-la.UTI. The blood is from inflammation and irritation of the lining of the urinary track from the "bad bug".
