@sarjjlma1 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect.

When you see this statement from a urine culture, it usually indicates that there are multiple types of bacteria present, with no one of those being "more present" than another. Did you recently see this reporting for a culture done on your urine? What was the reason your doctors did the culture in the first place?

I have been dealing with burning 'Down there' since Nov. 4th. I have seen 8 different Dr/ PA's. I was referred to a urogynecologist and saw him last week. I only have 1 kidney and am state 3. This doctor was finally able to give me a diagnosis of Lichen Sclerosus. He is the doctor that ordered the urine culture.

What does 5000 colonies mixed urogenital flora mean

Mixed flora was also the result in my urinalysis . They did not do a culture . I have a fistula between colon and bladder and surely bacteria due to that . Not easy to get an actual culture in my experience.

I have Leukocyte esterase, UA large and WBC, UA 31 from a urine test as a result from uti symptons

@gingerw I was told this today. I’ve been dealing with uti a lot lately. This last one I didn’t have any symptoms until I had to go get a kidney/bladder ultrasound done. I’ve been having pain on my left side where my kidney/spleen is located and it feels like a knot there. But results for that came back normal. But now I need to have a ultrasound on my left lymph node
