As the urethra is shorter and closer to the anus in women, they develop UTIs more frequently than men. The infection is usually caused due to bacteria like acinetobacter, klebsiella, proteus, and enterobacter.

The doctor will prescribe a urine culture test if they observe any symptoms of infection in the urinary tract. Some of the symptoms are:

• Painful urination
• Urine that is smelly
• Stomach ache
• Limited urine secretion
• Fever
• Chills
• Abdominal pain
• Cloudy looking urine

If the test result is positive, it indicates a urine infection. The doctor will start the antibiotic treatment plan to combat the infection. You will need to do a second culture test in three to six months to check the effectiveness of the treatment, and if the infection is still present.

You do not have to make any preparations for the urine culture test. Some precautions that need to be done are:

• Consumption of water before the test so you can urinate easily
• Inform the doctor of any antibiotic medicines that you are taking
• No urination for one hour before the test

During the Urine Culture Test

Once the urine culture test has been booked, the phlebotomist will arrive at the assigned location at the specified date and time to collect the sample. You will be given a sterilised container to collect the urine sample, and you can handover the same to the phlebotomist. The containers will be transported to the laboratory for testing and analysis.
