Abstract
Our study was carried on 100 females of different
ages and divided into :_
(l) PlLegnctn-t 6emctle-6 150 c.uu) :
22 pregnant females complaining of urinary troubles.
28 pregnant females not complaining of urinary
troubles.
(2) Non plLegnctn-t 6emctle-6 (50 c.ue-6).
25 cases non pregnant with devices
25 cases non pregnant without devices
A midstream urine aamples from these cases were
physically, microscopically and bacteriologically examined
to determine the incidence of bacteriuria and the
type of organisms responsible for bacteriuria. Antibiotic
sensitivity test were performed on the isolated organisms
and all the results were tabulated.
It is found that pregnancy predispose to urinary
tract infection seconda~to hormonal and mechanical changes
leading to stasis of urine and dilatation of urinary tract.
The incidence of bacteriuria was 22 % of pregnant
females incontrast to bacteriuria in control cases which
was 12 % (The incidence of asymptomatic bacteriuria in
pregnant females was lB.l ~).
But the incidence of bacteriuria in non pregnant
females using devices was 36 % which is higher than
infection in IUD users.

for urinary tract infection either alone (27.3 %) or mixed
(45.4 %) with Staph aureus , Diphtheroids, Anthracoids and
