Women are more susceptible to developing UTIs than men because the urethra is shorter and closer to the anus. This short urethra allows the bacteria to come in contact very easily, causing infections. Urinary tract infections are usually caused by bacteria like:

• Klebsiella
• Acinetobacter
• Enterobacter
• Proteus

Various factors contribute to the variability in the cost of a Urine Culture test. Nevertheless, the standard price for a Urine Culture test at PharmEasy in Pune is typically between INR 649 and INR 1249. To make an informed decision, consider comparing Urine Culture test prices in major Indian cities.

The urine culture test will be prescribed if there are any symptoms of a UTI. The symptoms include:

• Pain while urinating
• Smelly urine
• Belly ache
• Restricted urine secretion
• Fever
• Chills
• Abdominal pain
• Urine that is cloudy in appearance

Once the urine culture test shows a urine infection, the doctor will start the medication. A second culture test will be needed after three to six months to check if the infection is still present. Women in the first trimester must also do this test.

There are no special preparations that have to be done before the urine culture test. However, you should take some precautions like:

• Avoid urination for one hour before the test
• Drink water so you can urinate easily
• Consumption of any antibiotic medicines should be conveyed to the doctor

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.
