URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS (UTI) HOME TEST KIT

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common conditions affecting the urinary system. Symptoms can vary and may include burning during urination, a frequent urge to urinate, and, in severe cases, lower back pain, fever, or flu-like symptoms.

The urinary tract consists of the upper urinary ducts, bladder, urinary passages, and renal pelvis. Infections often start in the lower urinary tract and can spread upward to the kidneys. Women are more prone to UTIs because their shorter urinary passages make it easier for harmful germs to enter. In men, UTIs are more common in older age, often due to an enlarged prostate that can block urine flow.

WHO IS THIS TEST FOR?

URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS TEST is intended for anyone who wants to check the presence of leukocytes, blood, nitrites or proteins in the urine, indicating a possible infection in progress.

The test should be performed in the presence of one or more of the following symptoms: frequent urination, burning when urinating, turbid and/or smelly urine. It is recommended to use the very first urine in the morning.
