Hi,
It is very common to get blood in urine samples taken during periods. I would advise you to get another urine test done after your periods are over. If the sample gets blood cells again in urine then you might need few more investigations done to rule the causes of blood in urine, stones in kidney, ureter or bladder being the commonest. It is not a life threatening condition and the causes of it is very much curable.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
