Hi Doctor, I am 29 weeks pregnant. Yesterday I did my regular routine test and today I got the report. In my report it shows protein trace and bacteria present but I have no high blood pressure, no weight gain, and no edema.

Trace protein and bacteria can suggest mild UTI. Since there is no high BP or swelling, preeclampsia is unlikely. Consult your doctor, they may prescribe safe antibiotics if needed. Maintain hydration and good hygiene.

My wife is 6 weeks and 4 days pregnant. On 31st August 2022, her urine report indicates a trace of protein. Earlier on 19th August 2022, there was no trace of protein in the urine. Is this a matter of serious concern?
