Materials & Method: Urine samples were collected from UTI pregnant women attending at Out Patients Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Then samples were cultured and identified the organisms with respect to morphology and biochemical tests. Antibiotic sensitivity patterns were carried out with prescribed antibiotics disc in disc diffusion method. Result: The maximum UTI found on the age group of 30-39 years.
