This is because you have a urinary tract infection.

Take a HOMOCYSTEINE - URINE Test or Take a MATERNAL SERUM SCREENING - 1T QUAD (ANEUPLOIDY SCREENING) Test

My urine test report is pus cells 10 to 12 per hpf, RBC 1 to 2 per hpf and epithelial cells 4 to 5 per hpf. I am 9 weeks pregnant. Is there any serious problem? What should I do?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My report shows pus cells 10 to 15 per HPF and RBCs 2 to 3 per HPF. I am a 29 year old woman and I am taking the following medicines: Rekool L 25, Q max 200 mg, and Surbex XT. Is this okay or do I need more tablets?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My 9 month old daughter routine urine test showed 500 pus cells per hpf. A follow up urine culture showed occasional white blood cells per hpf but no bacterial growth after two days of incubation. What should be the next steps? Currently, she is taking Levomac, Zifi, Maxtra, and Econorm, and I am giving her a liquid diet along with breastfeeding.
