Consult Gynaecologist . Since there is already infection doctor will give antibiotics and repeat Urine culture and sensitivity again after completing dosage . Persistent of infection even after treatment will increase complications hence hygiene must be maintained to not get infected again and other causes also must be eliminated

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a Urine Culture Test Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

Book Urine Culture Test Test Book CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

My wife is currently pregnant. One month ago, she experienced abdominal pain, and a scan confirmed a urinary tract infection, which resolved within 3 to 4 days with medication. Since then, we have not had sexual intercourse. Can we now have sex normally during her pregnancy? For context, she is eating normally, does not have vomiting, her hemoglobin is 12, blood pressure is normal, and her doctor has confirmed everything is fine. She is following a healthy diet with fruits, vegetables, eggs, and leafy greens, and currently has no other issues. I would like a detailed explanation regarding safety and precautions.
