How long does it take to get results from fecal culture?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
7-10 days: Depending on the culture that was done, a culture could take a short is 48 hours or as long as a couple weeks. However i tend to tell my patients that 7 to 10 days is a reasonable timeframe to have some good results back.
