Mcug kidney function is normal and reflux is coming down (grade 4 but amount of urine pressure going back is reduced (turbocity)) doctor suggested to wait for 6 months and continue with antibiotics and surgery not needed as of now.

Lotbod factors help in deciding whether continuing the antibiotics, taking decision for surgery. Detailed evaluation with Paediatric nehprologist should help you to chart out a plan to know when/if  best to intervene surgically.
