Urinary tract infection causes are numerous.
Wiping back to front after bowel movements. This can spread E.coli from the rectum to the urethra.
Frequent sexual intercourse. Menopause. Changes in hormone levels cause physical changes resulting in ease of infection.
Kidney Stones. Hard deposits of calcium that resemble small rocks can block the bladder, preventing all urine from being expelled.

as far as i know, UTI is caused by the ascending normal floras to the urethra. this is, if a person holds on too much to his urge of voiding, and less intake of water.
