Genitourinary tract infections (GUIs) are infections that occur in the genital and urinary systems. These infections can affect both men and women and can be caused by a variety of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites.
Common GUIs include:
Treatment for GUIs depends on the type and severity of the infection. Mild infections may be treated with antibiotics, antifungal medications, or antiviral medications, while more severe infections may require hospitalization and intravenous antibiotics.
Prevention of GUIs includes practicing good hygiene, using barrier methods during sexual activity (such as condoms), avoiding douching, and staying hydrated. It is also important to seek medical attention if you experience symptoms of a GUI, as early treatment can prevent complications and the spread of infection.
