• Regular sexual activity, especially with new partners or when using spermicides
• Kidney disease, including kidney stones
• Issues related to incomplete bladder emptying, particularly if you use a urinary catheter
• A weakened immune system due to conditions like autoimmune diseases, organ transplantation, or cancer treatments.

Common UTI symptoms include:

• Pain and discomfort in the lower back and abdominal region
• Pain during urination

Additionally, in the case of a UTI, urine may appear cloudy or take on a pinkish or coral hue due to the presence of blood.

• Drink water to ensure easy urination before the test.
• Avoid urinating for at least one hour before the test.
• Inform your doctor of recent antibiotic use and provide your complete medical history, including any daily herbs or medications.

During the Urine Culture Test

For a urine culture, you need to provide a clean catch urine sample. You can easily collect an uncontaminated sample in a sterile container provided by PharmEasy’s healthcare professional at the comfort of your home, and PharmEasy will arrange for a medical professional to come and collect it.

The normal values and reference ranges of the test may vary from lab to lab. Please refer to the ranges mentioned in the report and consult a doctor to understand the interpretation of lab reports.

The main component of a Urine Culture Test is colonies of bacteria/ml. So, if the colonies are higher than the normal range, it could point towards a urinary tract infection. The results are interpreted as concerning if the symptoms of urinary tract infection are present. That is why sometimes, even if the colonies/ml are within the normal range, an individual might still have an infection.

Results of a Urine Culture Test are often interpreted jointly with that of a urinalysis. For instance, nitrite (a marker for bacteria) or leukocyte esterase (a marker of white blood cells) helps corroborate a urinary tract infection.
