Leading Women’s Health Company Moves To End the Trial-and-Error Cycle of Standard UTI Care

Evvy, the precision women’s health company, today announced the launch of the Evvy UTI+ Test, a comprehensive at-home urine test that uses PCR technology to detect 12 key uropathogens and 7 antibiotic resistance markers — delivering results in just 1 business day. If eligible, patients can also receive same-day, targeted prescription care based on their unique results – eliminating the trial-and-error cycle that has defined UTI care for decades.

UTIs are the most common infection in U.S. women, and yet the current standard of care can be slow, outdated, and inaccurate. Standard urine cultures can miss up to 60–70% of pathogens, and results often take days to return. As a result, nearly 1 in 2 women receive an antibiotic that may not effectively address their infection, leading to prolonged symptoms, repeat appointments, and unnecessary antibiotic exposure. Evvy’s UTI+ Test directly addresses these failures with fast, accurate results and precision Rx options.

“At Evvy, we believe women deserve better than guesswork,” said Dr. Kate McLean, OBGYN and Chief Medical Officer at Evvy. “We designed the UTI+ Test to solve a big failure of current UTI care: incomplete detection. By using PCR to identify 12 key pathogens, we can treat UTIs with accuracy and precision. The result is simple but profound – patients finally get better without the trial-and-error approach that has plagued UTI care for generations.”

For the 1 in 4 women who experience recurring UTIs, Evvy can offer additional insight through their vaginal microbiome test. Emerging research shows that the vaginal microbiome can play a key role in urinary health by acting as a reservoir for UTI-causing bacteria — and Evvy’s own dataset reflects this: 47% of Evvy users who reported a recent UTI had UTI-related bacteria detected by Evvy in their vaginal microbiome.

The launch of the UTI+ Test marks a major expansion of Evvy’s precision women’s health ecosystem, which now integrates testing for the vaginal microbiome, UTIs, and STIs with personalized prescription care and 1:1 coaching to bring women and people with vaginas the care they deserve.

The UTI+ Test is available now in the U.S. (except AK, HI, NY) at evvy.com for $248, or $218 with a subscription.
