The leukocytes 3+ in urine test of pregnant women are commonly found in pyelonephritis, urethritis and other diseases, which usually have a certain effect on the fetus, and need to be actively followed by the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
1. Pyelonephritis: due to the uterine enlargement during pregnancy, the ureteral contraction function is weakened, and it is easy to have a restriction of fluid drainage, which causes various pathogenic microbial infections causing inflammatory diseases in the renal pelvis and renal parenchyma; if it is not treated in time or improperly treated, it may occur in the case of fetal abnormality, preterm labor, miscarriage, and so on.
2. Urethritis: such as gonorrheal urethritis may be combined with genital infections, such as induced uterine infections may affect the normal development of the fetus, increasing the risk of preterm labor, fetal malformations, and even miscarriage.
Therefore, pregnant women urine test leukocytes 3 + should actively follow the doctor’s advice treatment, so as to avoid adverse effects on themselves as well as the fetus.
