A member asked:

Hi my urine analysis shows epithelial cells as 6-8/hpf. is it normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Most likely: There are always few sloughed epithelial cells from the lining of the urogenital tract that are dragged by the urine. If you are otherwise healthy with no urinary tract symptoms then it is within normal limits
