Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
But epithelial cells are normally present in urine. you have high rbcs but with menstruation it is also normal. other parametere are also normal. so overall you have normal urine analysis report. Dont worry, just be relaxed.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubts then you can ask me. I will be happy to answer you.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.

Hi!
welcome to HCM!
Pus Cells in urine indicate infection,your count of 6-11/hpf is slightly high.,upto 5 pus cells is taken as normal. Normally a few epithelial cells from the bladder or external urethra can be found in the urine sediment however in urinary tract infections/inflammation more epithelial cells are present. You have urinary tract infection.A course of antibiotics will cure it.you dont need to worry.Take care!
