If only cloudy,doubt: In absence of burning, frequency, discomfort, and poor odor, only a cloudy urine may or may not indicate infection. Agree with the urinalysis. Cloudy urine could occur if you are on a largely vegetable diet and take much phosphate like cola or dairy or lots of beans/ legumes since phosphate will precipitate in alkaline urine. If lasts long this phosphate could form stones.
