Medically termed as hematuria, red blood cells (RBCs) in the urine is considered to be normal if they are less in number. Generally about 2.5 million red blood cells are excreted in the urine everyday as part of the body's normal process to get rid of old and inefficient cells. Urinary Tract Infections: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common cause for red blood cells in the urine. 2  It occurs due to bacterial invasion in the urinary tract that may cause tissue damage. 3  This may eventually spread up to the urethra, bladder, and in some cases to the kidneys also.
