UTI is Urinary Tract Infection .
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for follow up .
UTI is urinary tract infection .
Prostate is located at the junction of Badder neck and Urethral tube which passes through prostate .Enlarged prostate usually starts after the age of 55 years which compresses the urethral tube causing incomplete emptying of badder during urination .This stagnant urine becomes the source of infection which is revealed in urine analysis as presence of pus cells.
Hope this will clear your doubt .
Thanks and Regards.
