A member asked:
I have been treated for an uti and still had symptoms. a culture was taken and came back negative. what else can this be?

What symptoms?: There are many organisms that cause UTI and some do not grow in routine cultures, e.G, mycoplamsa. There are also non-infecious causes of UTI like symptoms. It would be prudent to discuss your symptoms with your doctor for a proper evaluation.
