The
first step in diagnosing a UTI is usually a simple urine test called a
urinalysis. It looks for bacteria, as well as abnormal counts of white
and red blood cells. The dipstick test provides quick results. Your
doctor may also send your urine to a lab for culture to confirm the type
of bacteria. At-home test kits can help detect a UTI, but are not 100%
accurate. Be sure to go over the results and your symptoms with your
doctor.
