Culture reports are negative

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Very nice of you to get these tests esply urine culture.I hope you have consulted an urologist. Did he examine your testis and epididymitis?was there any pain during examination.?
Some times urine culture may be negative inspite of epididymitis and prostatitis.
You should mention him about recurrent PID for your wife and to rule out any causative factors from your side.
Even semen culture is not reliable at times because of contamination during collection.
Please reply to me about your urologist’s examination findings to help you further.

Regards
