A member asked:
Could someone get a urinary tract infection without having sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
UTI's and sex: The answer to your question is "Yes". People who do not have sex can develop urinary tract infections (UTI). As males have a longer urethra than females, they get them less often.
