Can a UTI during pregnancy cause a miscarriage? What are the risks?

You have to get checked and they'll prescribe you an antibiotic to clear up the uti. It's not a good idea to leave it untreated.

Yeah always get treated but they are common during pregnancy.

@embracemthrhd2, so it can cause a miscarriage

If left untreated yes...

I read during weeks 6-24 women are increased risk for a uti.... but i had it twice with this pregnancy and she turned out fine and i had 2 miscarriages before.

I've never had a UTI, until I got pregnant. Your doctor should be checking your urine anyway, but if you think you have one before your next appointment, call and let them know.

@embracemthrhd2, so u think ur mc was because of the uti

@mermaidmeshy, was your antibiotic good to take I read somewhere where it's say they can cause a miscarriage

@embracemthrhd2, I read the antibiotics can cause a miscarriage

No cause i didnt have a uti with my miscarriages... i was just saying i had miscarriages before... but when i had an uti my baby was fine... just to ease the worry...

@shanicenettles93 your doctor will know what's safe to take. I can't remember the name of mine, but I also googled it and everything I found said it was safe.

I had a uti during my first few weeks of pregnancy. My doctor gave me some medicine to take 2 a day and it was gone in a week. Now I'm 26weeks pregnant

@deannatullis20, I gotta take mines. 10days 4 times a day

How far along are you. I did mine early in pregnancy

@deannatullis20, 6 weeks
