Kindly check my urine report. It shows a trace of protein in the urine. I am currently 32 weeks pregnant and would like to know if this is normal during pregnancy or if I should be concerned. Is it harmful for the baby, or does it indicate anything serious?

A trace of protein can occur in later pregnancy and is not always harmful. Your doctor will monitor blood pressure and swelling to rule out any risk. Most cases settle with rest and hydration. Please repeat the urine protein test and monitor your blood pressure and sugar levels regularly as advised.

Why would protein in urine cause foam?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am a 21 year old college going girl. Last week I had a problem of swollen eyes. The doctor advised me to do blood and urine tests. As per my report, I have protein in my urine. Please guide me on this problem?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Earlier, my urine was foamy, and a previous urine report showed trace amounts of protein. So, I underwent further urine tests including USG Abdomen & Pelvis and microalbumin tests. I have attached these reports and would appreciate help in understanding if everything is okay now. Currently, my urine is clear.
