Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
If the organism causing UTI is sensitive to Ciprofloxacin the culture would be negative. A colony count of 10,000 does not denote significant infection.
How are you symptomatically? If better, complete the antibiotic course.
Do get back to me if you have further questions.
