A common and recurrent presentation is invasion of the urinary tract with infective organisms. Both men and women can be affected, and the age pattern of increased incidence is usually predictable in both sexes.
In men there is an increased incidence in prepubertal boys, and this is usually due to congenital (you are born with) conditions which may need surgical action. The incidence then rises with age commonly in 50plus years of age when the urinary bladder can be dysfunctional due to prostatic obstruction. In women typically incidence rises in youth on commencing sexual activity and then a second peak at menopause. UTI can be very debilitating and need to be treated and chronicity avoided.
