Why Do One Have Traces Of Blood And Protein In The Urine?

Hi, i am 30 weeks pregnant and went to see my MW couple of days ago, she traced blood and protein in my urine. She took sample and ask me to come again to know about the result. I am very worried and want to know is that what is this?

Is it harmful for my baby or is it related to pregnancy?

Please help me

Thank you

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The traces of blood and protein in urine indicate urinary infection. This is not serious condition and to worry about the baby. It is curable with proper management.

Consume plenty of liquids, get prescription of antibiotic and urine alkaliser
from your doctor and keep genitals clean with antiseptic liquid for faster
recovery.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
