@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.

@sarjjlma1 Great, now you have a diagnosis, and no doubt a treatment plan is in place.
