Will a urine culture miss urethritis? is a urine analysis helpful also?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: There are infectious and non infectious cases for urethritis. Infectious causes are ruled in or out by specific cultures. Urine analysis is not diagnostic in urethritis, but may provide useful information.
