How to figure out the normal range of epithelial cells in urine?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

What type?: There are a number of different types of epithelial cells that may be present in the urine. Squamous cells indicate contamination with skin or vaginal contents. None of the other epithelial cells are not normally present in urine.

Hi I recently took a Urine Test. Results were as follows; S.G. 1.028 pH 5.5 slightly increased Urobilinogen amounts, Pus Cells 4-6/H.P.F. and positive for epithelial cells. Everything else was nil and normal. What does this mean? Does it mean a UTI?
