Can a Uti Cause Neg Prego Tests? Opinions!
Posted: 06-14-06 12:14pm

I went to the doctors because my period is 4-5 days late. My lmp was may 16th...And I have been feeling light headed and dizzy and at times queezy and at times loss of appetite or I get full quick. So my breasts/nipples have been sore for a while and I have noticed I can see veins on them more, and fuller. Also, if you read previous posts im not on bc and hause pull out method, but not all the time.

So. I never had any signs that I had a uti, there was a time after sex where it hurt to pee, but I thought, not enough lubrication. So I went to the docs thinking I have to be prego I have full blown prego signs and im 4 days late.......Well turns out im not pregnant and I have a advanced uti so im on medication for 3 days then 7-10 days if it hasnt gone away. Is the doctors pee test for prego more accurate or should I wait another week and test again? I have no signs of pms or any cramps cravings, etc...Like I usually do when im expecting or late.

My question is could a severe uti w/ possibly kidney infection or urethrea cause my period to jsut not come at all? Because they told me the reason I was feeling so so sick was my uti.

Or could it be im prego, I have even had abdominal crampingbut lower near my pubic area and I am bloated. Could a uti cause an incorrect reading?

I do know , though that I live at my boyfriends most of the nights and we have unprotected sex often, so there have been a large number of times ( as alays if you read my posts) from may 17- until present that pre cum or he came inside me. So

just wanna know how serious uti and being prego is linked.

No its not suppose to affect your cycle. Many pregnancy women get that even beofre they know they are pregnant. In any case it shouldnt affect your cycle or interfere with detecting pregnancy. Good luck.

I agree with emma, a uti shouldn't alter a pregnancy test either way. If you think you are preggers and you have had a neg pee test request a blood test and that will not leave the question if you are or arent.

Crunchy taco hamburger helper shoebox, sweetballs on the side, with peppermint ice cream(and I am not even pregnant).
But to answer your question, anything is possible. Your uti could be part of your pregnancy signs and just remember that if you are on b/c and do not want to get pregnant that your meds could mess up your b/c pills. I hope you feel better soon!
Good luck!
And if you do want a baby, then, baby dust to you.

Well ladies, thanks for the shopping lists and also the comments.

I'm just disappointed. I want more out of my relationship!! It's been 3 years, I want a baby..I really do. I look around and it seems like everyone is happy and has a child to look after and care for and just share their life with. I know im going to marry this guy and he really wants to wait until he is about 30-40 to have a baby. I know im young but 3 years now, so what another idk like 20 give or take a few.

Both our parents are older in their 60's, my grandparents have no great grand children and you never know what the future brings.I am ready and we have unprotected sex so we know what could happen, so if I were to be pregnant I am def. Stepping up to the plate.

It is just so weird. I feel like I may never be pregnant again. Especially since I have all these weird stomache issues and a utithat I never really had symptoms too, I feel like there is something wrong that the docs are missing cuz I havent gotten a u/s and I will never have any kids.

But uhm yeah. These posts make me sad and paranoyed cuz I think everything is my period or preg. Or just "oh im sick" after reading some of the posts.

So I still havent gotten my period and don't feel any cramps, so idk..

Go0d night!
