Detailed Answer:

Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Presence of pus cells in the urine are suggestive of a urinary infection. It is best to start with proper antibiotic treatment after consulting your gynecologist as it can cause persistent pain in the lower abdomen and threatened abortion.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
