A member asked:

Uti medicine can cause false positive std test?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: If you had testing for an std (i will assume that you mean from a culture of your cervix) then you should absolutely assume that it is a positive result. It needs to be treated and you need to go back in in 1-2 weeks for a "test of cure".
