Dear patient, trace hemoglobin can be because of issues in the female genital organs. This need not be an infection. The problem of a few blood cells in your urine also called as trace hematuria, is due to most issues that can never harm a baby. Else your doctor would have said so, right? Keep good hygiene. Avoid antibiotics. Take a repeat test after 3 weeks. Regards, Dr. Neel kudchadkar.
