Urine Culture Test (Urine C/S) In Gwalior - Price & Details

PharmEasy Labs will add growth-promoting substances to the urine sample. When the sample is examined, it is seen whether the bacteria or yeast (a fungus) are present. If they start multiplying, it is a clear indication of an infection in your urinary system. As we have already said, UTI can occur in your body when bacteria enter your urethra. This tube will carry urine out of your body. UTI will occur in your bladder first. Then it will spread to your kidneys or your prostate. It will also give details regarding the bacteria or yeast causing the infection. Once it's identified, your healthcare provider will come up with the most effective treatment and determine if the bacteria is resistant to any antibiotics.

UTIs generally impact all genders. However, they tend to impact women often. A urine culture test is also used to diagnose E. Coli. Also referred to as Escherichia coli, it is a bacteria that lives in the digestive tract and is found in poop. Apart from this, the urine culture test can also detect Group B strep bacteria. When you suffer from an infection, you will feel a burning sensation when you go to pee. There might be times when you feel the burning, but nothing comes out when you take a piss. The range for the urine culture test is as follows:

• Less than 10000 colonies/ml - Negative
