This is because you have a urinary tract infection.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

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

Pus cells are absent in urine, does this mean there are any chances that pus cells can be present in stool. I have a normal urine report.

Hi, I am 23 weeks pregnant, and my urine report shows pus cells 4 to 5/hpf and epithelial cells 8 to 10/hpf. Is this normal? Please suggest what I should do.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I recently underwent dental treatment and took antibiotics during that time. I have also had a semen analysis, which showed 24 to 26 pus cells. Could taking antibiotics have caused the increase in pus cells in my semen?
