What Your MyUTI Report Tells You—and Why It Matters More Than Ever
If you’ve recently ordered a test with MyUTI, you may have noticed something different—and better—about your results report. We’ve redesigned it to not only improve clarity and accessibility, but also to deliver even more critical insights. With the launch of our expanded UTI panel and detection of more antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs), your report now offers a deeper look into the bacteria causing your infection and the treatments that are most likely (or unlikely) to work.
This new report is a powerful clinical tool, designed to bring you and your healthcare provider the information needed to make faster, more personalized decisions. Alongside updated visuals and simplified explanations, you’ll find clear indications of which antibiotics your detected bacteria may resist—helping to avoid trial-and-error prescriptions that don’t work.
📝 Download or print your full Report Reference Guide here for a step-by-step walk-through of the new report layout, how to read resistance flags, and how to share the data with your doctor.
In this post, we’ll break down what’s changed, why it matters for your health, and how our expanded detection is helping more people find relief faster—with confidence backed by science.
What’s New in the Report: A Closer Look
1. Bacterial Detection Levels
Our updated report now clearly shows how much of each pathogen was detected—information that can help differentiate between colonization and infection. Understanding these levels can help guide more precise clinical conversations, especially when symptoms are persistent or complex.
2. Expanded Antimicrobial Resistance Gene (ARG) Panel
One of the biggest upgrades is our expanded panel of antimicrobial resistance genes. These ARGs help determine whether the bacteria present may be resistant to common antibiotics, including sulfonamides, beta-lactams, fluoroquinolones, macrolides, and more.
Why it matters:
The presence of these genes can predict resistance even before a prescription is written, which helps avoid antibiotics that won’t work—and gets you closer to one that will.
3. Antibiotic Guidance You Can Bring to Your Provider
The report flags the antibiotics most likely to be ineffective based on detected resistance genes. That means your provider can use this data to make more informed treatment decisions—faster. We’ve made this section easier to read and easier to share, with clear callouts for common drug classes and individual names.
4. Simplified Language and Visual Design
We know that test results can be overwhelming—especially when you’re not feeling your best. The refreshed layout now includes detailed treatment descriptions, clean visuals, and guided footnote sections that explain what you’re looking at and why it matters.
Why Expanded Resistance Detection Changes the Game
Urinary tract infections are becoming harder to treat, with rising rates of antibiotic resistance reported across the U.S. For too many people, the standard test-and-treat model has meant repeated infections, delayed care, or prescriptions that simply don’t work.
By testing for more resistance genes, the MyUTI test now helps detect and sidestep these treatment pitfalls. Whether this is your first infection or your fifth, having personalized resistance data means you and your provider can pursue the most effective treatment faster.
Take Control With Confidence
With this upgraded report, you’re not just getting lab results—you’re getting a personalized roadmap that can support better outcomes and fewer recurrences.
