What to do if urine protein is high in late pregnancy

Some pregnant women have problems in the late stages of pregnancy. In this case, they need to pay attention to taking timely treatment methods for corresponding treatment, so as to ensure the health of the pregnant women and avoid danger to the pregnant women due to problems, especially the problem of high urine protein. So what should I do if the urine protein is high in the late pregnancy? Let me introduce this issue to you below.

High urine protein in pregnant women is generally caused by urinary tract infection. Immune foods rich in phytonutrients and antioxidants can be used to nourish and regulate the immune system function, improve immunity, help the body resist cell and viral invasion, remove waste toxins from the body, and restore human health.

Urinary tract infection is an inflammation of the urinary tract caused by microorganisms (mainly bacteria). The incidence of urinary tract infection is quite high, and it is more common in women, especially pregnant women. Current treatments for urinary tract infections:

1. Symptomatic supportive treatment;

2. Treatment targeting pathogens (cefazolin sodium, norfloxacin);

3. Maintain water and electrolyte balance;

4. All patients are encouraged to drink more water. Patients who drink less water should be given infusion to ensure that the daily urine volume is above 2000ml.

5. Some patients can take Chinese medicine. Anti-infection drugs can be selected from 1 gram of enhanced sulfamethoxazole, twice a day, 80,000 units of gentamicin tablets, three times a day, 0.2 gram of norfloxacin, three times a day. In severe cases, 2-4 grams of ampicillin or 0.4-0.6 grams of amikacin can be intravenously dripped. For those with obvious symptoms of urethral irritation, appropriate amounts of antispasmodics and analgesics can be used, such as 5-10 mg of scopolamine, orally three times a day, or 0.3-0.6 mg of atropine tablets, three times a day.

If the proteinuria is within 1+, you can eat a low-salt diet and control protein intake to reduce protein. If it is above 2+, it is recommended to go to the nephrology department for treatment. Generally, after the second trimester of pregnancy, you can take Chinese patent medicines and some Western medicines. If the protein level is above 3+ and accompanied by hypertension, hospitalization is required and one needs to be alert to gestational hypertension.

Generally, if the amount of protein is not high, it will basically not affect pregnancy. If you maintain good condition, you can also receive treatment after the birth.

The above is my opinion on this issue that I would like to introduce to you. If a pregnant woman has the above problems, she should pay attention to taking timely treatment methods to avoid problems caused by the above problems that affect her health. Finally, I wish the pregnant woman a smooth delivery.
