Abstract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) the most common bacterial infection found in pregnant women. Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a condition in which the bacteria or microbes grow and multiply in the urinary tract. Anatomical and physiological changes during pregnancy such as urinary stasis and vesicoureteric reflux will make pregnant women easier to developing UTI. In general, the management of UTI is by antibiotics. The administration of antibiotics is adjusted according to the type of UTI in the patient and based on the results of the sensitivity of urine culture. So it is very important to identify the type of UTI in diagnosis and management of UTI in pregnancy.

Keywords: Antibiotics, management, urinary tract infection
