The results of a urine culture help your doctor find out what's causing your infection and determine the best way to treat it. Almost 90% of urinary tract infections (UTIs) are caused by E. coli bacteria. Other types of bacteria, tuberculosis, and yeast infections can also cause a urinary tract infection.
