I have symptoms feeling like a uti. my urine analysis showed 25 lev leukocyte. i went to the doctor who said that does not indicate a uti. does it?

Culture needed: Leukocytes in the urine indicate inflammation in the urinary tract or genital area. A urine culture is the definitive test to identify a UTI. We often treat a UTI based on the clinical presentation.
