What Does This Urine Test Report During Pregnancy Indicate?
Question: Hi, My wife is 13.5 weeks pregnant and her blood reports seem normal except her urine report which we were advised to redo. Please help me out with the relevant medication based on the reports. Also, she has red marks / raised rashes on outer part of my thighs and some parts of hand causing itching. Please help me out
Brief Answer:
Nitrofurantoin is usually given
Detailed Answer:
Hello sir, thanks for trusting health care magic
All the given reports are perfect but urinalysis has infection and she needs antibiotics for the same
I usually give tablet nitrofurantoin as it is good and your culture reports are showing sensitivity to it too.
But it is a prescription drug so get the prescription from your doctor.
It is to be taken thrice a day for 7 days and then a repeat culture is also advised.
Regards
Dr Manisha

Hi,
Is there anything to be really concerned about or the same can be treated as she already had an IUFD at 20 weeks last time and what about her itching and redness with the skin??

Brief Answer:
Precautions advised
Detailed Answer:
Itching and redness in these areas are usually due to dryness in winters which increases due to pregnancy
She can apply lactocalamine lotion and keep a regular visit with her gynaecologist and all the important tests like level 2 scan at 17-18 weeks followed by triple test and a fetal ECHO.
I hope she will have a healthy pregnancy this time
