A member asked:
Can you have a uti when urinalysis negative, but urine culture positive for group b strep?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps......: The finding of bacteria in the urine without accompanying symptoms is referred to as asymptomatic bacteriuria. Whether or not to treat this should be discussed with your physician, especially if you are pregnant.
