What is Common UTI Pathogens and Characteristics about?

Most UTIs are caused by a single bacterial species, with 80% caused by E. coli. E. coli normally lives in the intestinal tract but can cause UTIs by entering the urethra. It is the leading cause of uncomplicated UTIs. Staphylococcus saprophyticus is another common cause, particularly in young sexually active females. While many bacteria can cause UTIs, E. coli and S. saprophyticus are the primary causes, usually entering the urinary tract from the bowel.
