Abstract: Abstract Urinary tract infections (UTIs) remain a prevalent and bothersome health issue among women, affecting millions worldwide each year. While UTIs can affect individuals of any gender, women are more prone to developing this infection due to different factors connected to their anatomical structures. This is a retrospective study among female patients attending clinics at University College Hospital, Ibadan. A total of 582 female patients were recorded, out of which 48 (8.2%) had significant growth of >105 cfu/ml of bacteria. The distribution of the pathogens includes Escherichia coli (57.1%), Klebsiella pneumonia (24.5%), Klebsiella oxytoca (10.2%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (4.1%), and Proteus vulgaris (4.1%). The age of the patients ranges from 1–85 years. Women at the childbearing age of 25–34 show a higher UTI incidence rate of 20.83% when compared to other age groups, followed by the 54–65 age groups (16.67%) and the 35–44 age groups (14.58%). Escherichia coli have been shown to be the main uropathogen of UTIs in female patients, especially women of childbearing age, with evidence of resistance to some of the usually prescribed antibiotics. Hence, there is a need to improve the choice of antibiotics in the treatment of UTIs.
