Hello and welcome to HCM,
The urine culture test has not detected presence of any pathogenic bacteria in urine.
The test implies that the urinary tract infection has cleared away from the urine sample.
The antibiotic has been able to clear away the infection in urine.
Presence of rare pus cells and epithelial cells do not signify anything serious.
The pus cells may be resent due to previous infection and they will clear away with time.
Thanks and take care
