Yes. A Urinaray Tract Infection, caused by the prescence of unheathly bacteria in the urethra or other parts of the urinary tract, can be contracted by men or women. It is generally more common in women, as it can be caused by improper cleaning after urination, or a failure to urinate after se.

UTIs can be prevented by drinking plenty of water, or, it you find yourself getting them frequently, use of an OTC cranberry supplement, which helps prevent the bacteria from adhering to the urinary tract.

If contracted, a UTI can usually be cleared up quickly, with antibiotics.

What causes UTIs?

Specifically, bacteria cause urinary tract infections, and UTIs are much more common in women than in men due to the proximity of a woman's urethra to bacteria that cause the urinary tract infection. Any activity that may introduce specific bacteria that cause the UTI infection should be identified. This may include intercourse, or wiping after urinating. There is no identified method to assure one does not acquire the UTI infection. If left untreated, a UTI can progress into a more serious infection that might involve the kidneys.
