Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Are Symptoms Of Bladder Infection During Pregnancy A Cause For Concern?
I am 14 weeks pregnant and have symptoms of a bladder infection. I have had one already during my pregnancy. I have a doctor appointment in less than 48 hours. Can I wait until then? Is this something that must be addressed tonight? Addressed in an emergency room?
Urinary tract infections are common during pregnancy. Get the urine examination done. Take medicines only after the report of urinalysis. I think if the symptoms are mild, then you can wait for appointment. However, there is no harm in giving sample of urine for urinalysis.
