My urine report shows a trace amount of protein, while the rest of the parameters are normal. Is it okay to have trace protein in urine, or should I be concerned?

Trace protein on dipstick can be normal after exercise or dehydration. Repeat with a first morning urine sample. If protein persists, get a Urine Microalbumin test to evaluate kidney health. Discuss findings with your doctor if risk factors like hypertension or diabetes are present.

Hello, I am 28 years old and 21 weeks pregnant. My doctor asked me to get an OGCT test done. For that, she asked me to dissolve G75 in 2 glasses of water and give a sample after 2 hours. Does G75 have any adverse effects on the growing fetus? Is G75 safe to be consumed in pregnancy?
