What does UTI discharge look like?

UTIs typically do not cause vaginal discharge. If present, discharge may appear cloudy, pus-like, or tinged with blood but can suggest another condition like a yeast or STI infection.

Clinical Context

Clinics assess all abnormal discharge. UTI rarely causes true vaginal discharge, so additional testing may be required.

Evidence-Based Approaches

NHS and NICE recommend evaluation of any discharge to rule out other infections such as thrush or STIs.
