Hallow Dear,

Most of the time, burning urination during later half of pregnancy could be due to infection and/or passage of crystals in the urine. Strip test may not be useful to detect the cause. better submit your urine for microscopic examination to the laboratory.

Since your culture test is negative, the chances of crystals in the urine are high. After microscopic examination, you will realize which crystals are being passed and then accordingly, you will have to modify your diet. Whichever the crystal, please drink plenty of water. An Ayurvedic medicine named Cystone may prove to be useful in such problems.

Any vaginal infective discharge also is responsible for burning urination when the terminal urine dribbles on the inflamed vaginal opening. Please report to your Gynaecologist if you are having any vaginal discharge. Fungal infection (can be treated by antifungal medicines), Trichomonal infestation (can be treated by Metronidazole) or Bacterial infection (to be treated by antibiotics) are common infections of vagina.

I hope this should give you relief.
