Here are some ...: Sex before proper urine collection for urinalysis +/- urine culture is okay and will not affect test result as long as the recommended procedures for urine collection is properly followed through to avoid contamination, i.e., clean catch mid-stream after proper intraLATA cleansing. More? Ask Doc timely.
