A member asked:

What if 24 hours urine protein test result is ordered in pregnancy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

??Toxemia: Increased protein in urine is one of the indications of toxemia of pregnancy. Some times it is impotent to get a better idea of the amount of protein being lost in the urine, especially in patients with kidney disease. Just because a test is ordered does not mean that the person has any disease.
