Brief Answer:
Semen culture need not show evidence of infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi
GREETINGS
Semen culture will not show positive in all infection.
Epididymoorchitis or prostatitis can be present in the absence of positive semen report.
Hence you need to get a physical examination with urologist or XXXXXXX to confirm infection.
Hope my answer helps you.
