Hi,
The report is normal. When did this problem start? Is there any pain or discomfort during urination? If there are such symptoms, it is better to get a urine culture also done to rule out urine infection. If negative, infection is ruled out and we have look for other causes like excessive water intake, worm infestation etc.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
