Question 10

can a female give a male a uti?

Accepted Answer

No: Only women are at risk of contracting a urinary tract infection from intercourse. That's because a woman's urethra, or urinary tube, is short and located near her vagina, and having sex may push bad bacteria into the urinary tract, causing an infection. A man's urethra, however, is much longer, which makes it harder for bacteria to enter his bladder.
