Urinary Bladder Infection (UTI):
Common Causes & Risk Factors
In most cases, about 80 percent in adults, urinary tract infection is
caused by a variety of pathogens - infectious bacteria - normally
present in the intestines, especially in the rectum (colon).
Nearly all infections of the lower urinary tract and bladder are caused
by a few strains of E. coli bacteria, called uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC).
A variety of other Enterobacteriaceae and Gram-positive pathogens,
includes:
- Staphylococcus saprophyticus - 5 to 15 per cent cases of urinary tract infections
- Group B streptococcus - bacteria that can be found in the digestive tract, urinary tract, and genital area of adults
- Chlamydia trachomatis - one of the most common cuases of bladder infection, especially urethritis
- Mycoplasma hominis
- Klebsiella pneumoniae
- Enterococcus faecalis
- Proteus mirabilis, or
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
They tend to remain limited to the urethra and reproductive system and,
unlike E. coli, they are sexually transmitted.
Other possible causes of urinary tract infections include:
- yeast infection, especially if taking antibiotics for repeated
infections
- allergies - mainly from foods
- stress and anxiety
- heavy metal toxicity, and
- poor kidney function.
Chlamydia Bacterial Infection
Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted disease caused by a
bacterium called Chlamydia trachomatis. In women, the chlamydia
organism infects cells of the lining of
- the cervix
- rectum, and
- eye.
Persons with chlamydia infections often have no symptoms. Consequently,
they may transmit the infection to other people without knowing it.
However, when the symptoms do occur, their type and severity will
depend on the site of the infection and the person's response to it.
Women who do have symptoms of chlamydia infection may notice:
- an increased vaginal discharge
- irritation of the area around the vagina, or
- burning pain with urination.
To diagnose chlamydia, a special test must be done by a health
professional.
Chlamydia infection is easily treated with an antibiotic medication.
However, if it is not detected and treated, chlamydia infection can
lead to complications, such as pelvic inflammatory disease, a condition
that signals the infection has spread to the uterus and fallopian tubes.
Symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease include:
- lower abdominal pain
- painful intercourse
- irregular periods
- spotting and
- fever.
This serious condition requires prompt medical attention.
In pregnant women, chlamydia infection can be passed on to their
newborn children, where it can cause:
- eye infections and
- pneumonia.
E. Coli Bacterial Infection
Various harmless strains of uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) are normally
present in the body - but they do not belong in the urinary tract.
The bacteria, however, have multiple little hairs called cilia that
function like little feet that allow them to climb from the skin around
the vagina, up the urinary tube, into the bladder.
If UPEC (E. coli) get into the bladder or the urethra (tube that
carries urine from the bladder), the body has ways of fighting them off
- including the obvious methods of simply flushing them out with the
urine. But these bacteria have evolved ways of anchoring themselves to
the cells of the urinary tract.
The invading E. coli bacteria take advantage of receptors naturally
found on the cells of the mucosal lining of the urinary tract.
Receptors are like molecular "docking bays" for substances which the
cells need for their normal growth and development.
Like pirates in an old movie, E. coli use "grappling hooks", called
type I pili, to first hook on to these receptors, and then to invade
the cell.
(These pathogenic "grappling hooks" are composed of long, fibrous
chains of a molecular "glue" called adhesin).
Once inside the cell, E. coli can live and reproduce in safety,
shielded from many of the body's defensive immune responses.
In fact, they are so sophisticated that when the body detects that
cells have been infected and activates the cell suicide program to
destroy the bacteria, UPEC can actually flee the dying host cell before
it is flushed out, and look for new cells to invade!
Antibiotic Treatments: E. Coli Survival Rate
Uropathogenic E. coli return in as many as 30 percent of women
apparently cured by antibiotics!
Bacteria E. coli are able to survive antibiotic treatment for
bladder infections by reverting to an inactive state.
Within several days of antibiotic treatment, the number of bacteria
reproducing drop to zero. Not all the bacteria are killed, though.
About 3 percent of the bacteria may be still present in a dormant state
after treatment with ciprofloxacin (Cipro) and about 7 percent
may linger after treatment with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole
(Bactrim/Septra).
Even after a month of antibiotic exposure, about 10 million of the
original 1 billion bacteria may remain.
Antibiotic treatment does not successfully kill all the bacteria
participating in the infection and may, in fact, encourage many of the
bacteria to persist in a resting state.
Therefore, current standard drug treatments for bladder infections are
not adequate and this phenomenon may account for many of the repeat
urinary tract infections.
E. Coli: New Antibiotic-Resistant Strain
A newly identified, antibiotic-resistant strain of a common E. coli
bacterium is contributing to an increase in relatively hard-to-treat
bladder infections in women.
The analyzed strain, resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, a
popular two-drug combination, shows a pattern of resistance to multiple
antibiotics and has genetic characteristics called "virulence factors"
that increase its ability to infect the urinary tract.
Not much is known about how new strains of bacteria that infect the
urinary tract arise and spread. There is also no evidence that the new
strain of E. coli is causing any increase in kidney infections or other
serious complications.
It could be that this organism has been around forever and has now
acquired resistance to several antibiotics. It could have been
introduced, perhaps through contaminated food.
E. Coli-Induced Repeated Bladder Infections
For women who are more prone to repeated infections, it can be a
painful and frustrating battle.
Most likely these are women over the age of 55 years or between the
ages of 25 and 29.
Those women are likely to continue having urinary tract infecions, who
have had three or more a year. Therefore, they can get another
infection within 18 months of the last one, or even more requently.
One possible factor behind recurrent urinary tract infection may be the
ability of bacteria to attach to cells lining the urinary tract.
The symptoms sometimes can be caused by chemical irritation such as
bath additives and washing powders; they may disappear if toiletries
and washing powder are changed.
Usually, the latest infection stems from a strain or type of bacteria
that is different from the infection before it, indicating a separate
infection.
Even when several urinary tract infections in a row are due to E. coli,
slight differences in the bacteria indicate distinct infections.
However, some women have recurrent symptoms suggestive of urinary tract
infection - but without infection being present. This condition is not
serious but can be troublesome.
Chronic or recurrent urinary tract infections should be treated
thoroughly because of the chance of kidney infection
(pyelonephritis).
Prostate Infection (Prostatitis)
Severe symptoms of bladder infections can be caused by
acute bacterial prostatitis, characterized by an inflammation of the prostate
gland.
Also repeated bladder infections can be associated with long-lasting or chronic
prostatitis (CP) - the most common form of the disease, usually caused by
detriemental bacteria.
Symptoms of prostatis are similar to those of bladder infection.
|
|
Prostatitis, often described as an infection of the prostate gland (a gland near the
bottom of the bladder, close to the urethra), can also be an inflammation with no
sign of any infection.
This non-contagious disease, however, affects 50 percent of men of all ages during their
lifetimes. |
|
Unfortunately, low-grade prostatitis is often missed on a doctor visit. Therefore,
you may experience no symptoms or symptoms so sudden and severe that you
have to seek emergency medical care.
However, if you are approaching age 50, you should also look for any of the
following:
- a decrease in the force of your urine stream
- difficulty in beginning urination
- dribbling after you urinate, or a feeling that your bladder isn't totally empty
after you finish urinating.
These could also be symptoms of an enlarged prostate, a condition called
benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) causing the buildup of urine in the bladder, which
increases the likelihood that pathogenic bacteria will grow and trigger an infection.
The Urinary Defense Systems Against Bacteria
Infection does not always occur when bacteria are introduced into the
bladder because the urinary system is structured in a way that helps
ward off infection.
A number of defense systems - natural safeguards - that protect the
urinary tract against infection-causing bacteria includes:
- the flow of urine which functions as an antiseptic, helping
to wash potentially harmful bacteria out of the body during normal
urination. (Urine is normally sterile, that is, free of bacteria,
viruses, and fungi!)
- the ureters (tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the
bladder) and bladder which are structurally designed to prevent
urine from backing up toward the kidneys
- the immune defenses in both sexes continuously fights
bacteria and other harmful micro-invaders. In addition, immune system
defenses and antibacterial substances in the mucous lining of the
bladder eliminate many organisms
- the vagina which is colonized - in normal fertile women - by
lactobacilli, beneficial micro-organisms that maintain a highly acidic
environment (low pH). Acid is hostile to other bacteria. Lactobacilli
also produce hydrogen peroxide, which helps eliminate bacteria and
reduces the ability of E. coli - the major bacterial culprit in urinary
tract infections - to adhere to vaginal cells
- the bladder lining- when bacteria infect the cells that line
the bladder they, literally, sacrifice themselves and self-destruct (a
process called apoptosis). In so doing, they fall away from the lining,
carrying the bacteria with them. This process, sugested by some
interesting research, eliminates about 90% of the E. coli.
- a possible natural antibiotic - identified by some
researchers - called human beta-defensin-1 (HBD-1) which fights E. coli
within the female urinary and reproductive tracts.
Urinary Bladder Infection: Common Risk Factors
There is a number of factors that increase the risk of developing
urinary tract infection - some women are more prone to getting an
infection than others:
Being Female
The female urethra is shorter than the male's, allowing bacteria
quick access to the bladder and this probably accounts for why women
are more likely to develop urinary tract infection. In addition, a
woman's urethral opening is near sources of bacteria from the anus and
vagina.
Being Pregnant
Pregnant women, especially in the late stages of pregnancy, seem no
more prone to an infection than other women; however, about 5 to 7
percent of pregnant women develop a urinary infection, probably due to
previous infections before pregnancy, high sexual activity and
diabetes, and also due to hormonal changes and shifts in the position
of the urinary tract during pregnancy (the enlarged uterus continuously
presses on the bladder).
PLEASE NOTE: Women who experience an untreated urinary tract infection
during their third trimester of pregnancy are at greater risk of
delivering a child who suffers from mental retardation or
developmental delay.
Poor Hygiene
Genitals must be kept dry and clean! Less than careful hygiene,
especially after developing loose stools or diarrhea, is one of the
most frequent causes of repeated urinary tract infections.
It is very easy to contaminate one's fingers when wiping oneself with
toilet paper, and if those contaminated fingers come anywhere close to
the opening of the urethra, there is a high likelihood of infection in
predisposed individuals.
Only white unscented toilet paper should be used as many women
react to the dyes and chemicals in the other toilet papers.
Unbleached toilet paper would be even better to reduce
- any possible chlorine exposure and
- the environmental contamination that comes from the bleaching
process.
Sexual Position
Some women find that they are liable to develop an infection if,
during sexual intercourse, their partner enters their vagina 'from
behind'. This is simply because in this position it is more likely that
bacteria from around the anus may be pushed forward towards the
urethra.
Diaphragm Use
Some women who use a diaphram are likely to develop a urinary tract
infection; also women whose partners use a condom with spermicidal foam
also tend to have growth of E. coli bacteria in the vagina,
which may enter the urethra.
Frequent Intercourse: Honeymoon Cystitis
In some women, high sexual activity may traumatize the urethra,
disrupting its lining and making it more susceptible to infection. This
is frequently called honeymoon cystitis.
The Elderly
If you are an older adult you are at high risk for developing bladder
infection (cystitis), with the incidence being as high as 33 out of 100
people.
What may place the elderly at increased risk for developing bladder
infection, is
- lack of adequate fluids
- bowel incontinence
- decreased mobility or immobility, or
- placement in a nursing home (a stress factor).
Postmenopausal
In postmenopausal women usually vaginal tissues start to break down
due to a decrease in estrogen levels; therefore, in general, the rate
of urinary tract infections gradually increases with age.
Urinary Incontinence
Urinary tract infection also can be one of the risk factors for a urinary bladder
problem such as incontinence - leakage of urine that interferes with some of
your normal activities, often causing embarrassment or discomfort in social
situations.
Incontinence, however, is not a disease, but rather a symptom of another condition
involving the urinary system, such as acute or frequent bladder infections.
A wide range of medical conditions, and even aging, can cause or contribute to
incontinence. Some causes, such as urinary tract infections, may be temporary. Others
can be long-lasting, such as prostate enlargement (BPH) blocking the urethra or - as an
effect of prostate surgery (prostatectomy).
Urinary incontinence can have a varying impact on peoples lives, in many cases it can
be very distressing and embarrassing, often preventing one living a normal life. This
embarrassment prevents many people seeking help, this is a pity as there are many
things that can be done to help.
Failure to Completely Empty the Bladder
This failure is associated with such conditions, mainly
obstructions, as:
- kidney stones
- tumor
- urethral strictures, or
- neurological diseases.
Urinary Tubes, Stents, or Catheters
An obstruction in the urinary tract can be due to:
- nephrostomy tubes (a tube inserted into the kidney to drain urine to the
abdominal surface), or
- ureteric stents (a wire tube fitted in the urethra to keep the passage
open) all tend to increase the likelihood of infection, or
- urinary catheters (a small tube inserted into the bladder through the
urethra to drain urine) - a usual cause of urinary tract infection due to bacteria on
the catheter, especially in the elderly or those who lose bladder control, or are
unconscious, or are critically ill (due to nervous system disorder).
PLEASE NOTE: Catheterization in males is more difficult and uncomfortable than in
females because of the longer urethra.
The Diabetic Bladder
Diabetics are at a higher risk of a urinary tract infection due to the unfavourable
metabolic changes, especially the elevated blood sugar levels, which suppress
their immune system.
The incidence of the urologic complications of diabetes, such as autonomic
neuropathy affecting the urinary bladder, ranges from 27 percent to 85 percent.
In addition to autonomic bladder dysfunction in diabetes, there is an increased incidence of
asymptomatic and symptomatic bacteria, which can progress to kidney infection
and kidney damage.
This increase in bladder infection in diabetes has been attributed to numerous
etiologies, such as:
- incomplete bladder emptying
- changes in bladder cell wall components, and
- immune dysfunctions in the urothelial cells.
However, there are very few published research studies which address either the
clinical aspects of bladder dysfunction in the diabetics or the basic molecular and
cellular aspects of the diabetic bladder.
The Neurogenic Bladder: Paraplegia (SCI)
Neurological conditions like paraplegia, a spinal cord injury, also called spinal
cord impairment (SCI), usually result in neurogenic bladder - an unstable or
atomic bladder, with no muscle tone.
Men with spinal cord injuries have lost, partial or complete, control over their
bladder and sphincter due to the compromised nerve receptors that are responsible
for:
- contracting and relaxing the muscles of the bladder and the sphincter, and
- registering feelings of pressure or release.
Due to this condition, most paraplegics are exposed to the regular use of catheters
and drugs. (The more traditional cap and bag, with continual drainage, is falling
from favor even though it is a safer system).
However, catheters often increase the risk of urinary tract injuries and repeated
bladder infections - a common problem in people with spinal cord impairment.
Exposed to repeated or long-term courses of antibiotics, in time, they also develop
resistance to drugs what makes maintaining healthy urinary tract for them even more
difficult.
However, contrary to a popular belief and common medical practice, men with spinal
cord injuries or spinal cord impairment (1) do NOT have to suffer from chronic bladder infections
and (2) do NOT have to be exposed to vicious antibiotics.
Childhood Urinary Tract Infections
A history of urinary tract infections or bladder infections in childhodd also poses a
risk for recurrences in adult life.
Congenital Abnormality: Vesico-Ureteric Reflux
Abnormal structure of the bladder can be something that you are born with
or that develops later in life. Vesico-ureteric reflux is a congenital abnormality
of the urinary tract that some children are born with, in which urine flows back
into the ureters or kidney during urination.
Suppressed Immune System
Urinary tract infections occur when the immune system is supressed or compromised due
to chronic illness, such a diabetes, AIDS, and cancer.
Blood Type
People with certain blood types attract bacteria which attach to
cells that line the urinary tract, causing recurrent urinary tract
infections.
Urinary Bladder Infection Prevention: Health Tips
General Suggestions
Bladder infections occur when microbes, mainly bacteria, get through
the urethra into the bladder.
This can happen by the way you wipe after going to the bathroom, or
through sex. Bladder infections can also be caused by a blockage of
urine flow, which may occur in pregnant women or in men with an
enlarged prostate.
Women In Particular
If you're a woman:
- Wipe from front to back after you go to
the bathroom - it helps prevent bacteria around the anus
from entering the vagina or urethra.
PLEASE NOTE: It is very easy to contaminate one's fingers when wiping
oneself with toilet paper, and if those contaminated fingers come
anywhere close to the opening of the urethra, there is a high
likelihood of infection, especially in predisposed individuals.
- Change sexual positions -
choose the position that causes less friction on the urethra.
- Lubricate adequatly during sexual
intercourse - it will decrease urethral irritation.
- Urinate after sexual
intercourse - do a "flush technique" within ten (10)
minutes, if possible; if not, drink 10-12 ounces of water immediately
after intercourse. It will cause you to urinate later and help flush
the bacteria out.
- Avoid wet or tight clothing - wear loose
pants.
- Don't wear a wet bathing suit for a long
time.
- Avoid nylon underwear and Spandex
clothing - they promote moistness and irritation of the
meatus (urethral opening); wear cotton
underwear instead, it is less irritating and provides more
ventilation than nylon.
- Use pantyhose with cotton
crotches.
- Avoid chemicals such as
feminine hygiene sprays, bubble baths, strong soaps and douches - they
may irritate the urethra.
Men In Particular
If you're a man:
- Practice safe sex - use
condoms to prevent infections, especially transmitted through sexual
contact.
- Always wash the penis gently
pulling back the foreskin when bathing or taking shower.
PLEASE NOTE: It is only true that an uncircumcised male has a higher
chance of bladder infections during the first year of life, this
risk goes away after age one; therefore, it is no longer true that
circumcising males leads to a significant decrease in the risk of
bladder infections.

No Side Effects
Developed with care and manufactured according to the highest standards, this pure
herbal, synergistic combination can help you deal with your bladder-kidney infection:
- safely
- effectively, and
- with no side effects.
Cautions and Contraindications
Sexual System:
UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula should not be consumed during pregnancy as it can cause
contractions of the uterus (due to hydroquinone via arbutin present in Uva Ursi/Bearberry).
Immune System:
UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula should not be used by prostate cancer patients (due to the presence of
Forskolin). Although Forskolin possesses numerous therapeutic properties, it influences androgen receptors
in a way that may stimulate the proliferation of existing cancer cells in the prostate gland.
Digestive System:
UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula should not be used by peptic ulcers patients (due to the presence
of forskolin).
Cardiovascular System:
UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula should not be consumed by hypertension (high blood pressure) patients
(due to the presence of nettle root as it further raises blood pressure).
Pharmaceutical Drugs:
UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula should not be used concomitantly with warfarin (due to the presence
of garlic which may potentiate the anticoagulant effects of warfarin and thereby may cause bleeding).
Reference: Fugh-Berman, A. Herb-drug interactions. Lancet. 355(9198):134-138, 2000. [Concurrent use of herbs may mimic, magnify, or oppose the effect of drugs. Plausible cases of herb-drug interactions include bleeding when warfarin is combined with garlic. Many reports of herb-drug interactions are sketchy and lack laboratory analysis of suspect preparations. Health-care practitioners should caution patients against mixing herbs and pharmaceutical drugs.]
PLEASE NOTE: When acute nephritis (kidney infection) is present - accompanied by high fever
along with sudden retention of urine (a painful urge to pass urine but the inability to do so) - have your condition assessed immediately by a health care practitioner.
Do Not Stop!
Although symptoms-free, please do NOT stop taking the UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula
and continue to use it until the botle is empty (up to 10 days).
If you are prone to repeated (chronic) bladder-kidney infections, for the first few months,
keep an extra bottle of the UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula on hand, and use it
immediately at the first signs of infection for the minimum of three (3) consecutive days.
In time, however, you will notice that the frequency of your bladder-kidney infections
begins to seize, making the further use of the UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula - with some
possible exceptions - unnecessary.

UTI Uribiotic Formula: Therapeutic and Preventive Intake
In general, suggested intake of the UTI Uribiotic Formula depends on the degree of UTI and its diagnosis,
and can be described as follows (with possible variations from person to person):
I. Mild UTI:
In case of first signs of discomfort (slight burning sensation when urinating, frequent urination and/or inability
to empty bladder completely) you need to take:
- Two (2) capsules three (4) times daily; therefore, for full benefits, at least one (1) bottle of the UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula is needed (an initial 10-day therapeutic intake).
II. Moderate to Severe UTI:
In case persistent signs of UTI (painful burning sensation when urinating, frequent urination at night and/or inability to empty bladder completely) you need to take:
- Two (2) capsules three (3) times daily; therefore, for full benefits, two (2) bottles of the UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula are needed (an extended 20-day therapeutic and prophylactic intake).
III. Chronic UTIs:
In case of recurrent, repeated UTIs (all the above symptoms along with the need and dependence on antibiotics) it is necessary to take:
- Three (3) capsules three (3) times daily; therefore, for full benefits, three (3) bottles of the UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula are needed (an intensive 20-day therapeutic and prophylactic intake)
SUGGESTED INTAKE: Take the capsules throughout the day in between meals (on an empty stomach), preferably before 6 pm, each time with one (1) glass of purified, lukewarm water.
PLEASE NOTE: After all symptoms have disappeared, in order to restore the urinary tract’s normal pH and, thus, prevent recurring UTIs, taking one (1) capsule of the UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula three (3) times daily for at least ten (10) consecutive days is highly recommended.
ADDTIONAL RECOMMENDATION: In order to fully exert the therapeutic, protective and preventive (prophylactic) effects of the UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula, it might be taken along with probiotics, especially Lactobacillus GG Plus.
CAUTIONS and CONTRAINDICATIONS: As opposed to taking probiotics, the UTI Uribiotic Unisex Formula should not be used by pregnant women, peptic ulcers sufferers, prostate cancer and hypertention (high blood pressure) patients. It also should not be used concomitantly with warfarin (blood thinner).
If an acute nephritis (kidney infection) is suspected, your condition must be assessed by a healthcare specialist.
