Why test for UTI?
A urinary tract infection (UTI) occurs when bacteria or other microbes, usually fecal flora, enter the urinary tract and cause an infection. The urinary tract is the body’s system for collecting and eliminating urine and includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. UTIs can affect several parts of the urinary tract.
Most UTIs occur in the bladder (cystitis), but they may also involve the kidneys (pyelonephritis), urethra (urethritis), or prostate (prostatitis). UTIs are common, most frequently affecting women, resulting in more than 8.1 million visits to a doctor each year. UTI testing can also identify the bacteria or other microbes that are causing the infection, which helps doctors decide how to best treat the infection.
