Yes: These results are entirely within normal limits, even for a non-pregnant woman. Although RBC's amd WBC's (pus cells) are not considered a normal constituent of urine, they frequently appear in small quantities, and may result from slightly "spillage" into the kidney, or may be simply contaminants washed into the urine during the sampling process. Don't worry about it.
