Common UTI cause: This is not unusual. Enterobacter is a normal intestinal bacteria, carried by almost all people, and one of many intestinal bacteria that cause the large majority of UTIs. Not as common as a cause of UTI than other bacteria, such as E. coli, but not at all rare. If your symptoms cleared up and have not returned, no worries.
