Hello and welcome to HCM,
The interpretation of stool examination is as follows:
The physical characteristics of stool sample are as follows:
The color, consistency and pH are within normal limits.
The microscopic examination shows presence of occasional pus cells only.
Presence of pus cells suggests presence of infection or chronic inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract.
No other infectious agent- ova or cyst of any parasite are not present in the stool sample.


Thanks and take care
