Based on the report alone, it is not possible to confirm first menstrual period.
At 13 years of age, onset of periods is common, and menstrual blood can contaminate urine samples, giving abnormal results.
If the report shows pus cells, bacteria, burning urination, fever, or lower abdominal pain, it is more suggestive of a urinary tract infection (UTI).
Next steps:
Correlate with symptoms (burning urine, fever, pain vs vaginal bleeding).
If UTI symptoms are present, consult a pediatrician for urine culture and treatment.
If this is her first period and she has no urinary symptoms, no treatment is usually needed—repeat urine test after bleeding stops.
Tip: Always collect a clean mid-stream urine sample (not during periods) for accurate results
