Can Bladder infections be caused by sperm?

I am not a physician and if you are experiencing any pain or other symptoms in the urinary tract you must get to you physician right away; urinary tract infections can be serious. As a non-physician, I will offer the opinion that sperm in and of itself is not dirty or diseased, unless there are other serious problems with health. An infection would be caused by the entry of germs somehow into the urinary tract, and not by sperm or by seminal fluid.
