Please review my report and let me know if I am suffering from a urinary tract infection. Also, could you explain what culture yields mixed growth of organisms, more than 10,000 CFU per ml (more than 3 types of bacteria grown) means?

Mixed growth can indicate contamination. Repeat urine culture with proper sample collection is recommended to confirm if UTI is present.

I had annual tests done and am attaching my urine report. I want to know if it is normal. I am having pain in the lower abdomen, so I expected RBCs and casts to be absent, but they are nil. Is this okay?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My urine report shows bacteria is present and I am pregnant now. Will it affect my child? The report also shows pus cells and epithelial cells. Epithelial cells are 12 to 14.

I have been experiencing severe itching while urinating and need to go to the bathroom very frequently, about every 30 minutes. My urine test report came back normal. Could you please advise why this problem might be occurring?
