A pregnant woman has high white blood cells in a urine test. What could be the reason? What does it mean for the fetus?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, elevated white blood cells in a urine test do not have a direct impact on the baby. The increase in white blood cells in the urine could also be due to vaginal inflammation, leading to leukorrhea contamination in the urine. It is recommended to re-examine a midstream urine sample for a definitive diagnosis. Drink more water and urinate frequently. This can help flush the urethra and promote natural recovery.
