Overview

This test uses PCR technology to identify urinary pathogens that standard cultures may miss. PCR reads bacterial DNA directly, without requiring organisms to grow in laboratory conditions. This means it can pick up fastidious or slow-growing organisms that culture-based testing overlooks.

Particularly useful for recurrent UTIs, treatment failures, and post-menopausal patients where infections may involve unusual organisms. The test also screens for fungi and sexually transmitted pathogens that can cause similar urinary symptoms.

At-home urine collection using the provided kit. Follow the collection instructions for the most accurate results.

Symptoms

Suited to people with recurrent UTIs, treatment-resistant infections, negative cultures despite ongoing symptoms, or post-menopausal women with complicated urinary issues.

Questions

  • PCR reads bacterial DNA directly, identifying organisms that may not grow in standard culture. It is more sensitive for fastidious bacteria and screens for multiple pathogen types in one test.
  • People with recurrent UTIs, treatment failures, negative cultures despite ongoing symptoms, or complicated infections in post-menopausal patients.
  • Bacteria (including difficult-to-culture species), fungi, and sexually transmitted pathogens. This gives a broader picture than standard culture alone.
  • It may identify organisms missed by standard culture, antibiotic-resistant strains, or mixed infections that require a different treatment approach.
  • At-home urine collection using the provided kit. Follow the collection instructions enclosed for the most accurate results.
  • Complicated UTIs often involve more than one pathogen. Results help your doctor select targeted antibiotics rather than relying on broad-spectrum treatment.

How to prepare

Collect a spot (random) urine sample using the provided kit. Follow the enclosed instructions for proper technique. Avoid starting new antibiotics before collection if possible (check with your healthcare provider). Return the sample promptly using the prepaid postage.

After the test

Share results with your doctor or urologist. They can use the organism identification to guide targeted antibiotic selection rather than broad-spectrum treatment. If STI pathogens are found, your doctor will advise on appropriate follow-up.

Your test results will be available in your private dashboard. If there are any urgent issues, we'll let you know so you can follow up with your health professional.

Understanding results

Results list organisms identified by PCR along with their relative quantities. Your healthcare provider will interpret which organisms are clinically significant and whether they may be contributing to your symptoms. Not all organisms found require treatment.

Simple health checks in my control

I didn't know that private blood tests were an option. Tried this platform as the packages suited what I wanted for a good price. Easy to follow instructions, and super quick results. Platform provides more information than my gp's ever have on the tests and what the results meant. Would like more clinics to be able to test at (specifically Capital Pathology) but there is a decent network. Will continue to use.
