Abstract	Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common bacterial infections affecting pregnant women globally. Pregnancy increases the risk of UTIs due to physiological and anatomical changes in the urinary tract. If left untreated, UTIs can lead to serious maternal and fetal complications including preterm labor, low birth weight, and kidney infections. The rise in antimicrobial resistance further complicates the treatment of UTIs in pregnant women. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of UTIs and to isolate and identify the causative bacterial agents among pregnant women attending prenatal clinics. This study seeks to highlight the importance of early diagnosis and targeted treatment to reduce maternal morbidity and improve pregnancy outcomes.
