UTIs (urinary tract infections) are NOT a STD!
Bacteria that enter the urethra and travel up the urinary tract are the usual cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs). Bacteria that normally live in the large intestine and are present in feces are the most common source of infection. Sexual intercourse may introduce bacteria into the urinary tract, especially in women. Catheters, which are small, flexible tubes inserted into the bladder to allow urine to drain, are a common source of bacterial infection in people who are hospitalized or live in long-term care facilities.

Tell your boyfriend to educate himself more about UTIs. Take care!

You could just be getting a UTI because of not peeing after sex. I get them just from having sex pretty much every time. If you drink cranberry juice it will reduce your risk of getting it again and it will also help clear up the UTI you have now. But if your BF is being such a jerk about this you both should get tested chances are he might have something or he is cheating on you. Do not let this go untreated as it could cause serious kidney issues.

Having sex and not cleaning your self properly after words can cause UTI's and also sex can keep them there longer but it is NOT from sleeping around. it is a URINARY TRACT INFECTION.
