What Causes Raised Protein Levels During Pregnancy?
Im 36 weeks pregnant an i went into the emergency at about 33 weeks, an was told i had a trace of protein in my urine. The doctor didnt think anything about it, so neither did I. I then went back to see MY doctor at a normal prenantal appoinment, and he was concerned because I had raised blood. We didnt think much of it because i had walked 15 mins to my doctors office an I havent done much excerise latley. Last night I looked up what protein in my urine could possible mean. What does this all sounds like to you?

The presence of protein in urine may be due to high blood pressure, diseases in kidney or liver. So check BP and liver and renal function tests. If normal, then repeat the urine test after 2 weeks.
