Your gynae should tell you if there is any concern for urinary tract infection. Usually, the scale is absent/1+/2+/3+. So 1+ means there was a small amount of bacteria noted in the urine. The number of epithelial cells is also a bit higher, meaning that the urine sample wasn’t the best (slightly contaminated), so in other words, let your gynae know if you have symptoms of urinary tract infection (eg. Bubbles/blood in urine, burning sensation when passing urine, etc) and let your gynae interpret this result and advise you accordingly
