Urethritis is an inflammation of the urethra (urethra). This inflammatory process can occur at any age in both men and women. Men suffer from urethritis more often, this is due to the anatomical features of their genitourinary system: most of the urethral genital tract is located in the internal part of the male body and passes through the prostate.
