Hi to Hello1234
If you don't see WBC in your urine - but you are seeing bacteria in the Urine Culture tests, Then as long as the bacteria is not a serious type where medication is needed, then it is a function of Hygiene. I had a similar situation as I work a lot in my garden and some times I am so engrossed with my garden that hygiene gets a bit compromised.
So as I became more alert & conscious of this hygiene issue .. the next urine test .. there was no more bacteria
Good Luck

Hi @l0lag0lag0b3 😊
It's so great to hear from you! I hope all is going well with you. Thank you so much for your response and education about the WBC. Your information is always so helpful. My doctor called the day after and asked me to retest the urine. He said the same thing that you said. He told me to make sure and use two towelettes before taking the catch. I am happy to report that the bacteria came back "none seen".
I still have +1 blood but I am hopeful that may clear next time too.
Thank you so much for responding to my post discussion. I really appreciate getting your valuable advice.
Best of everything!
