Followings are my comments:According to your information, it is suggestive of Urinary Tract Infection. 10-12 epithelial cells are detected on culture test. They usually don't effect in pregnancy but needs to be treated.TREATMENT: I suggest to take one course of ANTIBIOTIC (like Cephalexin or Nitrofurantoin) & URINE ALKALISER (to be taken with water). It will help to control urine infection. Kindly, procure complete prescription from your doctor.PREVENTION: You must drink plenty of water (2.5 to 3 lit/ day) to flush out the body toxin, take cranberry juice (one glass) regularly, maintain genital hygiene properly, empty bladder in time and wear clean-cotton underwear only.Hope, it helps for you. Wish you good health and take care.
