Avatar n tn After confirming the diagnosis of a urinary tract infection through urine tests, antibiotic treatment may be started. A urine culture and sensitivity test will determine the specific organism responsible as well as the antibiotic treatment. Drinking plenty of fluids also help. Take care and best regards.
Avatar n tn Are you using ovulation kits? If not do so also use basal body therometer every morning, but opks are good once you get a postive your ovulating so you have sex. Try sex every other day during your ovulation.
Avatar f tn Try the baking soda+urine test. I see a lot of moms do that in youtube to kniw their baby's gender.
Avatar m tn The latest lab test slip had written chlamydia, gonorrhea, trich and had urine culture checked off. I just learned today when speaking with a lab representative that all chlamydia/gonorrhea tests done at this hospital are culture tests. I read that the culture tests are not as sensitive as the non-culture NAAT tests and that most places have switched to NAAT test. Moreover, culture tests are harder to conduct sometimes causing lots of false negatives in inexperienced hands.
Avatar n tn fatigue, urgency to urine, cramps (which progressed in strength within 3 day period) and strangely enough, I got sick in the morning. now I know that if I was pregnant, it was too early for morning sickness, BUT when I took the test, it read negative! I also had my period come on, and that sealed the deal for me. Can anyone explain these symptoms, and my tests coming back negative?!
Avatar f tn A routine urine examination along with a urine culture will be able to detect the problem. Drink plenty of fluids and water and see if that helps. Also if you are on crash diets etc then protein breakdown can cause an ammonia smell. Also diet rich in protein can be the cause. There are some bacteria in the gut that produce hydrogen sulfide gas.
Avatar n tn I know this is gross, but you could always smell it and see if it smells like urine. But, when in doubt... always get it checked. I had preterm labor at 29 weeks pregnant and never would have suspected. Also, when my water finally did break at 38 weeks it was such a small trickle it didn't even test positive for amniotic fluid. I went back the next day feeling terrible so they tested the fluid again and sure enough it was my bag of waters with a very slow leak.
327385 tn?1378360731 i have never been tested for diabetes.i had a pituitary tumor removed almost 2yrs ago.my uncle &cousin on dads side have diabetes.dr test my urine have hi urine ph of 8.5 dont realy know what that means.i have faucet joint syndrome.could that be my problem?im 35 yrs old. should i get tested for diabetes ?
Avatar f tn Hi Thanks for writing to the forum! The smell of ammonia in the urine comes from "urea". Bacteria that contaminate the urine will convert chemicals in the urine into smelling chemicals that are responsible for the distinctive smell, such as ammonia. You can give his urine sample for testing. With a kidney stone chances of infection are high. Some foods like proteins cause the excretion of nitrogen compounds (ammonia and urea). Hence these foods can be reduced in diet.
Avatar m tn Hey, Im 20 and im a male. So sometimes when i urinate it burns and sometimes it will be cloudy, and sometimes it wont. I've had urine tests done to see if i had any UTI'S or any other infections such as sti's/std's and everything came back clear. I got a kidney and bladder ultrasound done, and it came back perfect, but sometimes when i pee its so sore and cloudy as hell so somethings obviously not right.
Avatar m tn The doctor then ordered a urine test (it took an hour to get the results), and a urine culture test (5 days). Both came back negative. There is no swelling, no discharge of any type, Urine is clear (or the usual yellowish) and doesn't smell funny, the only sympton is the itchyness. Now said doctor is on vacation, I have to find another one, but in the mean time, does anyone have any idea about what this could it be? Maybe a swab test can detect anything that the urine culture missed?

Avatar f tn ve tested since then with first mornnig urine, chances are slim that the test would be wrong. Brown discharge can be normal, and happen right before or right after as period - it;s old blood. Maybe wait another few days and if this doesn't turn into a period like flow, then test again with first morning urine.
Avatar m tn I met a guy online and agreed to meet him on may 19th. It was my first time so we masturbate eachother and he finger my anus. The problem is that he used saliva to lubricate my anus and my penis. I'm scared now Since then i have a discomfort at the tips of my penis. Something after a bowel mouvement i see string of white mucus at the tip of my penis. It look like semen but a little bit more ''solid''. I did a urine test and my doctor told me that i had protein in my urine.
Avatar f tn They are also looking to see if you may be showing signs of diabetes or dehydration as well.
Avatar m tn Don't worry about the silly test. If it's a urine test the medications will show up in your urine, especially the methadone. It has a very long half life. Please reconsider the way you are taking your medication and be honest with your self and the doctors. You will be much better off in the short and long run. good luck.
Avatar f tn I took a urine test at the health department and was positive. I'm 8 weeks today and haven't had morning sickness. Only symptoms are tiredness. Is this normal?
