Urinary tract infection is more common in females than males. Around 50 - 60 % of women are experiencing urinary tract infections in India. Nowadays, this is a severe health problem in our society, most commonly by Escherichia coli, less commonly by Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus mirabilis, and Staphylococcus saprophyticus. The study is designed as a questionnaire and is distributed to female students. This study was conducted to assess urinary tract infection among the female age group (18 - 22) years at Sree Ramakrishna Medical College of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences and Hospital, Kulasekharam, Tamil Nadu, India. Verbal consent was taken from the females by explaining the purpose of the study. The total number of study respondents was 30. The questionnaire contains 30 questions. The parameters of the questionnaire included urogenital, Gastrointestinal discomforts, pain, medication, habits, personal hygiene, and cloth hygiene. This study shows that most females are not aware of the symptoms related to urinary tract infections. Therefore, females need more awareness about urinary tract infections and genital hygiene.
