What do my culture results mean?
A few days ago, during a pelvic exam, I was told my cervix was very inflamed. They took swabs and sent for culture. The results came back online but I won’t see my doctor to discuss in a few more days. It says “Heavy Growth normal uerogenital flora”. Does the heavy growth mean an imbalance or is this a totally normal culture?
With just the information 'heavy growth of flora'- it could mean a lot of things, unfortunately you will need to talk to your doctor about what that means- given the rest of the results. Are you having any symptoms?

For about 6-7 weeks I’ve had a constant urge to pee. I can hold it for a few hours but the longer I go the more discomfort I get in my clitoris and urethra. I was tested for uti and treated with antibiotics about 5 weeks ago and my last urinalysis showed up normal. When I got the urinalysis is when they did the pelvic exam and saw my cervix was inflamed.
