A member asked:

What does it mean if few white blood cells are seen in a wet mount result? does it mean i could have an sti or not?

Dr. James Lin answered

Most likely, normal: Seeing occasion/few white blood cells on wet mount smear is common and normally expected as long as no pathogenic organism is seen like trichomonas & you are free of symptoms. More? Ask the doctor doing the test for its potential significance since s/he knows more clinical state of you than anyone online.
