The analysis of urine culture was performed twice in 120 pregnant women with diabetes mellitus: on their first visit and during the 3rd trimester of pregnancy. During the first evaluation 10% of patients had germ-free culture, 46.7% non-significant bacteriuria and 43.3% significant ones. The percentage of results in the studied group indicating significant bacteriuria decreased as far as to 35.8%, but germ-free culture were still 10% during the second analyses, in 3rd trimester. The incorrect urine culture decreasing count during pregnancy stood in relation with better diabetes control based on 24-hours glucose profile. Staphylococcus and Escherichia coli culture occurred more frequently. The control group comprised of 60 pregnant women without diabetes mellitus-significant bacteriuria occurred in 15% and germ-free culture were observed in 43.4% of patients.
