Hello.
Welcome to HCM.
This is Dr. Swarnava Dattagupta answering your query.

See, I understand your concern. The readings of your urine test shows increased pus cells which is a sign of urinary tract infection or UTI. These are mostly bacterial infections and should be treated with antibiotics because the genital tract and urinary tract are in close proximity and urine infection may go to genital tract also. And specially during pregnancy the I'll effects are more.
I would suggest you to visit your gynaecologist and get a course of antibiotics done. Also take urine alkalinisers.

Hope this was helpful.
Regards
