What Causes Foamy Urine?

I have noticed foam in my urine in the past couple of months. I went to two different doctors, one took a urine sample, and said there was no protein my urine, said everything looked fine. Foam continued, so I went to another doctor, explained to her that I had Kidney problems 14 years ago. So she took blood test along with the urine test, and said everything came back normal. She said my kidney function was fine. she did not see a problem. I still have foam, and I drink plenty of water. Should I be worried, should I go see yet another doctor, or am I just over reacting? Thank you.

Hello
Thanks for query .Foamy urine occurs in two conditions
1) When your blood is filled with urine than its capacity, moment you start urination the urine stream is forceful and hits the toilet causing foaming in urine .

In absence of any positive evidence of infection and proteins in urine as detected in laboratory tests done by both the Doctors it has no significance at all.

Do not become panic about it .
