From my experience, traces of protein in the urine can be considered normal. If you have concerns with protein in the urine, a dipstick urinalysis can be easily performed in the comforts of your own home. Test your urine each time you go to the restroom. If you have a trace of protein on 2 or more occasions in the same day, it make be worth asking your doctor about. Normal urine contains some protein, but when the protein level consistantly becomes above trace amounts, there could be an underlying kidney problem that should be addressed. Protein in urine can also be the result of excercise, emotional stress, cold or heat exposure, or fever.
Protein in your urine is an indication that you have had some injury to one or both kidneys, which causes leakage of chemicals that would normally be retained rather than excreted. This damage is almost certainly the result of a kidney stone. It is probably not a serious condition and does not require treatment. It would only be a problem if you have a diet that is critically low in protein (which could happen if you are a vegetarian).
There should be no protein in urine for one very good reason. In the kidney, blood is filtered so that some molecules diffuse into the nephon. However, protein molecules are too big to diffuse between the capillaries and nephron.
Protein should not be found in the urine. Cause it may mean that your kidney is having a problem with its filtering of substances like protein and BUN.
To recieved more carotain of my body
Kidney problems maybe
Usually diabetes...get it checked out quickly!
When protein is found in the urine, it may mean that the kidneys are not working efficiently. A protein level of 3 means that there was +3 proteins in the urine and a follow up with the doctor should be initiated to check other kidney functioning levels.
suger
it means that you have aborbe so much protein ur body ge ts rid of it by you urinating
It is not uncommon to find protein in your urine. This does not necessarily signify a major risk, however if it becomes reoccurring, your doctor may want to perform more testing.
Micro: Tiny, very small amount. Albumin: A protein playing a very important role in the blood. A microalbumin test checks urine for the presence of a protein called albumin. Albumin is normally found in the blood and filtered by the kidneys. When the kidneys are working properly, albumin is not present in the urine. However, when the kidneys are damaged, small amounts of albumin leak into the urine. This condition is called microalbuminuria. Microalbuminuria is most often caused by kidney damage from diabetes. However, many other conditions can lead to kidney damage, such as high blood pressure, heart failure, cirrhosis, or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). If early kidney damage is not treated, larger amounts of albumin and protein may leak into the urine. This condition is called macroalbuminuria or proteinuria. When the kidneys spill protein, it can mean serious kidney damage is present. This can lead to chronic kidney disease. A microalbumin urine test can be done on a sample of urine collected randomly (usually after the first time you urinate in the morning), a sample collected over a 24-hour period, or a sample collected over a specific period of time, such as 4 hours or overnight. A microalbumin urine test is done to check for protein (albumin) in the urine. Early detection may change treatment in an effort to preserve as much kidney function as possible.
possible kidney stones
Protein in the urine is termed as proteinuria in medicine. Among children, its the outstanding sign of nephrotic syndrome, if accompanied by other signs and symptoms like blood in the urine, hypertension and history of streptococcal infection that's possibly because acute glumerolunephritis (AGN). Among pregnant women protein in the urine is may indicate presence of pregnancy induce hypertension. Protein in the urine may also be present if you have urinary tract infections or live impairment..
Do you mean Albustix? Albustix is used for Urine and to check the protein in the urine to see if there's any kidney problem. If there is, the color of the paper will change.
