One reason why it might seem like there's a link between UTIs and periods is because some women have more sex during their period since they are not worried about getting pregnant. Sex during your period can irritate your already sensitized urethra (from your period) making it more susceptible to bacterial infections.

UTIs are usually caused by bacterial infections. These most often enter the bladder through the urethra, but infection may occur through the blood or lymph. Bacteria can enter the urinary tract by way of sexual intercourse, catheters, stool, or partial blockage of a urinary passage.

MYTH: UTIs are not a big deal. It's true that a UTI may subside without treatment, but it's also true that the infection could spread to your kidneys and cause serious and permanent damage. If you are experiencing discomfort down there, it's in your best interest to check it out.

Most UTIs only involve the urethra and bladder, in the lower tract. However, UTIs can involve the ureters and kidneys, in the upper tract. Although upper tract UTIs are more rare than lower tract UTIs, they're also usually more severe.

Any chronic disease, especially a chronic diseases left untreated, can cause a build-up of stress that affects your period. It is possible, though unlikely, for a UTI to stress you out to a point where you miss your period.

Having a UTI should not directly affect your period but there are other factors that link UTIs and periods, like hormonal imbalances, stress, sex, and hygiene. Tampons and pads that are not changed regularly enough promote bacterial growth and can increase your chance of getting a UTI.

Blood can be found in the urine for a variety of reasons including UTIs and urethral trauma and irritations. The urethra is a sensitive part of the body that is generally unexposed to foreign objects. Friction from the catheters can lead to abrasions and small tears throughout the urethra that result in bleeding.

After surgery, you may notice some blood or clots in your urine as the wound starts to heal. If your bladder is being irrigated (flushed with water), you may notice that your urine becomes red once the irrigation is stopped. Some bleeding is normal. It should clear up before you leave the hospital.
