All depends on how your feeling, why you did test in the first place. Those results, by themselves, are meaningless and may indicate simply a specimen that was collected after being in (brief) contact with vulva or vagina. At the very least, need SEVERAL carefully done specimens all showing similar results before going for a consultation

repeat a clean catch mid stream urine after cleaning the meatus and if it still shows 3-5 rbc pl see a Urologist. Anti biotics are not given if only RBCs are present in urine
