Could I have a UTI if I don’t have any symptoms?
You can have a UTI without symptoms. Symptoms may bother you less after you've had an infection that has been active for several days or weeks. The infection may have been partially controlled by your body's defenses or by a medicine, but it can still be there at a low level without symptoms.
Symptoms may not be as bad the second, third, or fourth time you get a UTI. Not having symptoms does not mean that the infection is less harmful. This is why your urine may be checked again after your infection has been treated. Learn whether or not you may have a UTI.
