Urine Culture Test (Urine C/S) in Guntur - Price & Details

Women are more prone to getting urinary tract infections as they have a shorter urethra. This urethra is closer to the anus. If you have had a urinary tract infection in the past, are pregnant, have had unprotected sex, or have some kidney disorder, you are more prone to developing a UTI. The bacteria that usually cause a urinary tract infection are acinetobacter, klebsiella, enterobacter, and proteus.

Some symptoms of a urinary tract infection for which the doctor will prescribe the urine culture test are:

• Pain in the abdomen
• Pain while urinating
• Smelly urine
• Restricted urine flow
• Fever
• Chills
• Stomach pain
• Cloudy urine

A positive test result indicates an active infection in the urine, for which you will need antibiotics.

It is recommended to take these precautions before the urine culture test.

• Do not urinate for one hour before the test
• Drink plenty of water so you can urinate easily during the test
• Notify the doctor about the antibiotic medicines you are taking so they can make recommendations before the test

During the Urine Culture Test

Book a urine culture test with PharmEasy Labs, and opt for the home sample collection facility. The phlebotomist will collect the sample from your home. To maintain hygiene, the phlebotomist will hand over a sterilised container to collect the urine sample. Once the container is full, you can give the same back to the phlebotomist who will safely transport them to the lab for testing. The test does not take too long, and you can resume your daily activities after it is done.
