[[Urinary tract infection|Urinary tract infections]] are found more frequently in women than in men. It is estimated that more than 30% of women will experience at least one episode of cystitis. Of these 30%, 20% women will have recurrent cystitis. The case-fatality rate/mortality rate of uncomplicated cystitis is approximately zero. Females are more commonly affected with cystitis than males. The female to male ratio is 4 to 1. Acute uncomplicated cystitis commonly affects women ages 18-39 years. There is no racial predilection to cystitis. Cystitis is a common disease that affect everyone, mostly women, worldwide.

Overview

Urinary tract infections are found more frequently in women than in men. It is estimated that more than 30% of women will experience at least one episode of cystitis. Of these 30%, 20% women will have recurrent cystitis. The case-fatality rate/mortality rate of uncomplicated cystitis is approximately zero. Females are more commonly affected with cystitis than males. The female to male ratio is 4 to 1. Acute uncomplicated cystitis commonly affects women ages 18-39 years. There is no racial predilection to cystitis. Cystitis is a common disease that affect everyone, mostly women, worldwide.

Epidemiology

Incidence

  • It is estimated that one third of the women population has at least one episode of cystitis in their lifetime. Of these many will have recurrent cystitis.
  • 81% of the total UTIs in the world occur in women.
  • 27% of women with an episode of UTI have another episode within the next 6 months while 48% within the next 12 months.[1][2]
  • More than 7 million uncomplicated UTIs occur in the US per year.[3]
  • Sexually active women are known to have a higher incidence of UTIs than women of other categories.
  • The incidence of cystitis in women is 5-7 per year per 100,000 while that in same age men is 50-80 per 100000.[4][5]
  • The incidence of UTI is higher in sexually active women than postmenopausal women.[6][7][4]
  • There is a higher incidence of urinary tract infection in immunocompromised, elderly, diabetic, and individuals with indwelling catheters.[8][9]

Prevalence

  • Almost 30% of the women will experience at least one episode of cystitis during their life span. Of these 30%, 20% of these women will have recurrent cystitis.[1]

Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate

  • The case-fatality rate/mortality rate of uncomplicated cystitis is approximately zero.[10]

Age

  • Acute uncomplicated cystitis commonly affects women ages 18-39 years.[11][3][12]
