Doing the gotta-go potty dance all the time? Constantly asking “What’s that smell”? Have a love-hate relationship with the toilet?

You might have a urinary tract infection, a condition in which bacteria get up inside your urethra, urinary tract, or kidneys, and have a full-on pain party. Don’t panic, though, it’s one of the most common infections women get and it’s totally treatable.

One in five women will get a UTI in her lifetime, according to the National Kidney Foundation. And once you get one, it makes you more prone to have them again in the future, with 20 to 30 percent of women having repeat infections, explains the Foundation.

While most UTIs can be cleared up with a short course of antibiotics, if you fail to start treatment in time the infection could spread to your kidneys. (And that means you’ve got a serious problem on your hands.)

So put your phone down and pay attention when you pee. Most UTIs can be cleared up with a short dose of antibiotics—provided that you’re familiar with these UTI symptoms in women and catch the infection in time:

1. Your Pee Smells Like A Kitty Litter Box

Urine that smells like ammonia—a pungent chemical commonly used in kitty litter and window cleaners—is one of the first really noticeable signs of a urinary tract infection, says ob-gyn Sherry Ross, M.D., women’s health expert and author of She-ology: The Definitive Guide To Women’s Intimate Health. According to 2015 research published in PLoS ONE, that’s because, UTIs can cause blockages in the urinary tract, allowing your natural ammonia levels to build up.

Stinky pee can be a side effect of many things, ranging from medical issues, like other types of infections, to silly things, like eating certain foods (asparagus, anyone?). Still, it can be difficult to know what’s causing the down-there smell, so give your doc a call, she says.

2. Your Pee Looks Like Pink Lemonade Or Tea

Discolored, cloudy urine often accompanies the strong smell of a UTI, Ross says. Normal pee should look clear or light yellow, similar to lemonade. Pee that looks pink or brown might mean there’s bacteria or even a little blood mixed in with your urine. After all, any infection in your urinary tract can cause irritation and bleeding.

Urine that just doesn’t look right definitely warrants a trip to the doctor. A urine test will alert your doc to any infections, she says.

3. You’re Making Potty Stops All The Time… But Not Much Is Coming Out

Feeling like you have to pee all the time, even right after using the bathroom, is a tell-tale sign of a urinary tract infection, Ross says. It isn’t that you really have to pee every 10 minutes, but rather that you feel the urge to pee constantly. That’s because, when you have a UTI, bacteria irritate the urethra and bladder.

However, since you likely aren’t actually filled with pee, when you do sit on the toilet instead of finding sweet, sweet relief, all you get for your trouble is frustration (and possibly a burning sensation when you strain). If you constantly feel the need to pee, but only a drop or two is coming out, it’s time to call your doctor, Ross says.

4. Your Pee Burns Like Crazy

Speaking of a burning sensation, another common UTI symptom in women is burning or pain around the opening to your urethra when you pee, Ross says. It may even feel like your urethra is spasming or cramping. Again, this has to do the bacteria irritating and inflaming your urethra.

That said, a burning sensation when you pee can point to various down-there infections, including STIs, so it’s important to talk to your doc and pee in a cup to determine what kind of infection you might have, she says.

5. You’ve Got Cramps, But No PMS

Abdominal cramping and pain are another symptom of a UTI. However, a lot of women mistake them for PMS cramps, low-back issues, or even muscle soreness from overdoing deadlifts at the gym, Ross says.

Don’t fall for it! This is one symptom you should definitely pay attention to, especially if the pain increases over time, is sharp and localized to your lower back, or is accompanied by a fever, she says. This may indicate that the infection has moved up into your kidneys, a potentially serious complication that can land you in the hospital.

6. Not Even Your Favorite Ice Cream Tempts You

While less common UTI symptoms in women, loss of appetite, nausea, and even vomiting can all affect women dealing with urinary tract infections, particularly if the infection is more severe or has spread to the kidneys, Ross says.

Of course, loss of appetite, nausea, and vomiting can all point to other issues, as well, but if you experience them along with any other signs of a UTI like burning when you pee or constantly having to go, there’s a pretty good chance you have a UTI.

7. Your Favorite Gym Pants Are Suddenly Very Uncomfortable In The Crotch Region

Sitting around in damp, sweaty yoga pants or workout undies long after your workout creates a breeding ground for bacteria, Ross says. In the early stages, this may simply feel like irritation in your lady bits; leggings or underwear that are normally comfy now suddenly drive you nuts.

Launder your gym clothes after every workout (no more letting them fester in your bag!), Ross advises. Bonus: This also helps prevent against other infections, like yeast infections and bacterial vaginosis.

8. You Have No Symptoms At All

Sometimes a UTI may show very minor symptoms or no symptoms at all, Ross says. This is one reason why she advises women to still have regular checkups with their gynecologists even if you’re not in need of a Pap smear.

Regular pelvic exams can help diagnose urinary tract infections before they cause detectable issues, she says. Ideally, you should have one per year.
