very common for a woman to get UTI after sex!.
just by all the activity pushing E!. coli bacteria into the urethra -- very easy to have this happen (just look at the anatomy of the area)!.

Yes, it's entirley possible to get a UTI from sex!. Everyone has bacteria on their genitals and, as you know, your urethra is very close to that area!.

Definitely - it even has it's own nickname from back in the 50's - it's called honeymooner's disease (cos that's when most women lost their virginity)!.
If it's cloudy and red that means it is a serious infection - go to the doctor and get some antibiotics asap - you don't want the infection spreading upwards into your kidneys!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Of course it is! That's how most women get them!. Always empty your bladder immediately after having sex and increase the amount of fluids you drink!.
