Chronic Urethritis Diagnosis & Tests
- A urinalysis may indicate potential infection or inflammation.
- A urine culture (clean catch) is done to confirm infection and causative agent.
-
Urethral discharge culture or vaginal culture specimen(s) may be obtained to rule out sexually transmitted diseases.
-
Cystoscopy and urethroscopy may be performed to directly examine the urethra. These tests may reveal a urethral stricture (narrowing), a urethral diverticulum (out-pouching), or a mass (such as a urethral tumor).
