A member asked:
I tested 3+ for group b strep after a stool culture, is this serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: GBS is considered a normal finding in stool. It is an occasional cause of UTI's in women.It is most worrisome if present in the genitals of a pregnant woman near the time of delivery, when it can cause severe infections in a newborn.
