Cyclic proteinuria

Cyclic proteinuria is an increase in protein in the urine that occurs regularly and may recur over a short period of time, usually lasting a few days. It can be either mild or severe and requires careful medical examination and treatment.

One of the most common and dangerous symptoms of such diseases is proteinuria, which is associated with impaired renal function and can lead to serious complications. If you notice regular proteinuria in yourself or your loved ones, you need to consult a doctor to diagnose and determine the cause of this phenomenon.

Cyclic proteinuria can be associated with various kidney diseases, such as pyelonephritis, glomerulonephritis, interstitial nephritis and others. It can also occur due to kidney injuries, urinary tract infections, malignant tumors and other causes. In any case, one of the main factors that increases the likelihood of cyclic proteinuria is increased protein levels in the blood.

In most cases, when a doctor diagnoses a patient with cyclic proteinuria, they will first do a urine test to determine levels of protein and other substances. After that, based on your symptoms and urine test results, he may order additional tests, such as a kidney ultrasound, computed tomography scan, or magnetic resonance imaging. Sometimes a kidney biopsy is also required.
