What leads to UTIs during Pregnancy?

Your body undergoes a wide range of modification during the course of your pregnancy. Increased levels of hormones lead to some parts of your urinary system to slow down and relax the course of fluids – providing more time for bacteria to build up prior to being flushed down.


UTIs that build up in the area of the bladder are regarded as "Lower UTIs" or "Cystitis." Nevertheless, bacteria can multiply and reach up to kidneys, which lead towards a more serious condition, i.e. "Upper UTIs."


There are more cases of Lower UTIs than Upper UTIs. The signs of which are:

  • Signs of blood in your urine
  • Pain or irritation in the abdomen and lower stomach
  • A constant feeling of the need to go to the toilet
  • Pain or a burning sensation while urinating
  • Feeling generally under the weather

Upper UTIs are believed to be a much severe condition, especially for pregnant women and usually involve:

  • Diarrhea
  • Headache
  • Constant encounters of high body temperature
  • Shaking and shivering
  • Pain in the lower back, side or pelvic area for longer durations
  • The sensation of sickness and vomiting

Although UTIs would not initiate any serious concerns, it is yet crucial to treat them regularly, and particularly during pregnancy. The UTIs that have been left unattended is connected to the premature birth of the baby with low birth weight.
