Urinary Tract Infection Testing Market Overview:
The urinary tract infection (UTI) testing market is growing steadily due to the rising prevalence of UTIs, especially among women, the elderly, and patients with chronic conditions. Increasing awareness about early diagnosis, coupled with advancements in rapid diagnostic methods, is driving market demand. The shift from traditional culture tests to point-of-care testing (POCT) and molecular diagnostics is further boosting adoption. Additionally, growing healthcare expenditure, improved access to diagnostic facilities, and technological innovations in urine analysis are supporting market expansion worldwide.
The global urinary tract infection testing market size was valued at USD 622.2 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group estimates the market to reach USD 877.0 Million by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 3.89% during 2025-2033. North America currently dominates the market, holding a significant market share of over 35.0% in 2024. The urinary tract infection testing market share is primarily driven by the rising prevalence of urinary tract infections among women, increasing awareness about the benefits of timely diagnosis, and improvements in healthcare infrastructure.

Industry Trends and Drivers:
Rising Prevalence of Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs):Â The increasing incidence of UTIs globally is one of the major factors boosting the market growth. Moreover, the rising geriatric population who are susceptible to these infections, especially post-menopausal women, and individuals with underlying health conditions, such as diabetes or kidney disorders, is favoring the market growth. Besides this, the rising infection rate leading to a growing demand for accurate and timely diagnostic tests, which are essential in reducing the duration of infections and preventing complications like kidney damage is contributing to the market growth. Besides this, the heightened reliance of healthcare providers on urine culture, dipstick tests, and advanced molecular diagnostic techniques to detect infections early and prescribe effective treatments is fostering the market growth.
Rapid Advancements in Diagnostic Technologies: The rising technological advancements in diagnostic testing, such as the development of newer molecular and point-of-care (POC) diagnostic technologies, are catalyzing the market growth. These advancements allow for faster, more accurate results, minimizing the delay between testing and treatment. Moreover, the rise of nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs), which detect bacterial deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in urine samples to improve diagnostic accuracy, is contributing to the market growth. Additionally, the burgeoning integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in diagnostics to enhance the interpretation of test results, offering personalized insights into the infection’s severity and guiding treatment options, is creating a positive outlook for the market.
Increasing Demand for Home-Based and Point-of-Care (POC) Testing:Â The growing preference for home-based and point-of-care testing is fostering the market growth. Moreover, the increasing emphasis on patient convenience and the rising demand for self-monitoring healthcare tools, promoting many individuals to opt for home UTI test kits that provide quick and reliable results, is enhancing the market growth. These kits use dipsticks or rapid test strips, which can detect the presence of nitrites or leukocytes in the urine, indicating a potential infection. Additionally, the development of point-of-care tests in clinics, pharmacies, or retail settings that offer patients a convenient alternative to traditional lab testing, with results available within minutes, is favoring the market growth.
