Persistent UTI with diabetes needs further testing. A urine culture can help find the right medicine. Keep sugar levels in check to help recovery.

Take a URINE ROUTINE + CULTURE SENSITIVITY Test or Take a Fasting & PP Blood Sugar with Smart Report Test

Hi I am a married working woman staying in a hostel. For the past two months I have been suffering from a urine infection. Please refer to my attached report. I am not able to understand and need proper guidance on what to do. I have already taken medication but I catch infection again just by using a common toilet. Please suggest?

I am currently having a UTI, and I have done a urine report and urine culture. I have been taking medicines for the last 15 to 20 days, but still have frequent urination and lower abdomen or stomach pain. Earlier, there were antibiotics, but now another dose is prescribed without antibiotics. Will doing panchakarma help to cure UTI?

Can I have a urinary infection for years without knowing it?
