Understand the Infection. Protect Your Health

A urinary tract infection (UTI) occurs when bacteria — most commonly E. coli — enter the urinary system. Although UTIs are more common in women, anyone can be affected, including men, children, and older adults. Symptoms may include burning during urination, frequent urges to urinate, pelvic pressure, fever, or discomfort.

Some UTIs present no symptoms at all, yet can still progress into serious conditions like kidney infections or even sepsis. Because other pelvic conditions can resemble UTIs, accurate testing is essential to ensure proper and safe treatment.

How Our UTI Test Works

Fast, Accurate, Molecular-Level Answers

At Novagen Clinical Lab, we use advanced PCR-based testing instead of slow traditional cultures. With just one urine sample, our molecular test can:

Detect specific bacteria such as E. coli, Klebsiella, Enterococcus, and Proteus
Identify mixed infections often missed by standard cultures
Reveal antibiotic resistance genes (such as ESBL markers)
Detect fungal infections when present

Most results are delivered within 24 hours, helping providers start precise treatment quickly — and reducing unnecessary use of broad-spectrum antibiotics.

When to Get Tested

Signs It’s Time for a UTI Screening

You should consider booking a test if you experience:

Burning or pain while urinating

Frequent or urgent need to urinate

Strong-smelling, cloudy, or bloody urine

Pelvic or bladder discomfort

Fever, chills, or back pain

Quick, accurate testing can prevent complications, reduce repeated infections, and support safer antibiotic use.
