Answer

You should always be honest with the doctor especially about being sexually active that could change what it is they look for but the only thing that would come up in urine that would show your active is pregnancy or possibly and std/sti

Answer

Where I live, it is not legal for doctors to discuss those personal things with your mother in the room. So you shouldn't have a problem there. BUT if you're pregnant, they have to tell her.

Answer

The plan B wouldn't have stayed in your system long enough to show up in a urine sample now. That being said, it's very possible that your UTI is caused by sex. There's a lot of bacteria that you're exposed to during sex and it can get in your urethra, that's why it's always important to pee after sex. Just for future reference. Also always remember to wipe front to back.

Answer

Your doctors cant tell anyone even if you are sexually active. They need to know for medical reasons

Answer

Yeah even if you're a minor there is syill patient confidentiality, but I don't think they can tell from a pee test whether you're having sex or not

Update: I AM PERFECTLY FINE MY PEE HAS NO INFECTION. not fine though cus apparently they found like crystals and stuff which is weird because i've had no symptoms ! i'm gonna get treated though so it's all good :) . thanks to everyone who helped me this question though!

Answer

Ok a couple things: plan b doesn't cause UTIs. Neither does shower gel (like someone said, it's more likely to cause a yeast infection). Also, plan b wouldn't be in your system for that long so you don't have to worry about your doctor knowing you took plan B. UTIs aren't sexually transmitted but can happen due to sex (transfer of bacteria in your vagina or anus into your urethra) so there's no way your doctor will know you've had sex (but for the record, you should be open with your doctor about your sexual history). Your doctor can't talk to your mom about your health (it's illegal) unless you've signed a consent form. Last thing: why did you have to take a urine test to begin with if you didn't have any symptoms??

Answer

Hey I was wondering if the Plan B worked for you and around how long is it in your system ? Took one yesterday after he finished inside me and I wasnt on any other birth control. (Condom broke.)
