A member asked:
Its there anyway enterococcus faecalis could be in my urine without an actual infection? i have urethritis and male and this is the only thing found after extensive testing. could this be the cause of my urethritis?

Infection: is most likely reason for this result, and likely related to the urethritis. Treatment should clear the infection.
