Symptoms of abdominal pain, bloody urine or vaginal discharge, and discomfort with urinating can overlap in both urinary tract infections and pregnancy. A urine pregnancy test (which can be very sensitive but not 100% accurate, especially in the first few weeks of a pregnancy) is often obtained to rule-out pregnancy if there's concern about a urinary tract infection.
