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.
I m going to a hotel Wednesday because I m going to MEPS Thursday morning for the US Army. I ve been told not to invite a female companion of mine to the hotel room of mine the night before MEPS, because they do a urine test. I m completely free of any sort of drugs, but I ve been told that something to do with the hormones in the body after ejaculation can lead to a failed drug test. It s a silly question, but is this true? Does ejaculation really make a difference in the outcome of my UA?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Ejaculation does not cause hormonal disturbance in the body.
Semen could cause a false-positive urine protein dip-stick test and hence it needs to be avoided.
Hope I have answered your query.
