Did you know urinary tract infection can lead to infertility?

There is no evidence that lower urinary tract infections (UTIs) in a woman affect her ability to conceive, but upper tract (kidney) infections could. What you do want to keep in mind is that infections in the male partner can affect his fertility. Also, once you are pregnant, UTIs can cause problems for both mother and baby.

Female UTIs and the ability to conceive

Urinary tract infections are common in women. Although the lower urinary tract - bladder and urethra - are on one side of the reproductive tract, a mild UTI in a woman is not a known problem for conception. There are no reports of bacteria spreading from the urinary tract to infect the reproductive tract, although the opposite may occur.

Male UTI and conception

Unlike women, an infection in the male urinary tract can affect male fertility and conception. Due to the structure of the male reproductive and urinary systems, organisms in the male bladder and urethra can spread to his reproductive system.

The spread of bacteria to the prostate gland and other reproductive structures can reduce sperm count, decrease sperm motility, and other semen factors, which can cause male infertility if left untreated.
