A member asked:
I am 11 weeks pregnant and today my results came back: leukocyte esterase ua large: what does this mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Urinalysis: Leucocyte esterase comes from white blood cells - infection fighters. Having these cells in your urine usually means infection. However, there can be other causes and so i would recommend that you talk with your doctor about getting a urine culture done if she/he thinks this means infection.
