Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Kylie is exhibiting symptoms of cystitis, which is a urinary tract infection typically caused by bacteria entering the bladder. Although sexual activity can sometimes be a contributing factor in developing cystitis, it is not typically transmitted sexually. Chlamydia and candidiasis are sexually transmitted infections, while scabies is a parasitic skin infestation and not related to the symptoms Kylie is experiencing.
