A member asked:

Good day! may i ask the meaning of my urinalysis result positive 1 leukocytes.... thank u?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Infection: Leukocytes in the urine usually are a sign of infection. Each lab is different and sometimes a small number of leukocytes can be normal. If there is concern for infection what you need is a urine culture to make certain that no infection is present.
