A Urinalysis with Microscopic and Urine Culture test checks a urine sample for signs of infection and other problems. Many centers call it a urinalysis with reflex to culture, a UA with microscopy and culture, or a urine analysis with microscopy and culture. If your doctor ordered this, you can book at participating labs on LabFinder.
Some labs list it as a UA with microscopy and culture. The urinalysis looks at color, clarity, and chemicals like protein and sugar, then a microscope checks cells and crystals. The urine culture tries to grow bacteria to see if a urinary tract infection is present and which antibiotics may work.
Common reasons: burning or pain when peeing, urgent or frequent trips to the bathroom, cloudy or bad smelling urine, lower belly or back pain, blood seen in urine, pregnancy checkups, or follow up on kidney concerns. Your doctor may also use it to recheck after treatment to be sure the infection has cleared.
You will check in, confirm your order, and get a clean catch kit. You will clean the area, start to pee, then collect a midstream sample in the cup. You return the cup to staff and can leave. Most visits take about 15 to 30 minutes from arrival to finish.
Hydrate lightly: drink some water so you can provide a sample, but do not overdo it. Avoid vitamin C overload: large doses right before testing can affect some readings. Avoid strenuous exercise: hard workouts just before the test can change results. Clean catch: follow the cleaning and midstream steps given by the lab. Share medicines: tell the team about antibiotics or urinary pain meds. Always follow any instructions from your doctor or the center and bring prior results if you have them.
