Do the symptoms of a women's bladder infection include a strong urge to urinate?

Symptoms of a urinary tract infection for both men and women include a strong urge to urinate frequently. However, during a UTI, only small amounts of urine are usually passed at a time, states Web MD.

Other symptoms of a urinary tract infection, or UTI, in women include pain or a burning sensation when urinating, pain in the lower belly, fever, nausea and strong-smelling urine that looks cloudy and/or tainted with blood, Web MD claims. Urinary tract infections should be treated promptly to avoid possible complications like kidney damage or widespread infection. The most common treatments for a UTI are antibiotics prescribed by a doctor to kill the infection within a few days, Mayo Clinic states.
