Glucosuria: Glucose (sugar) in urine, sometimes with symptoms
-
Glucosuria (glycosuria) has a higher than normal value of glucose (sugar) in the urine. Sometimes this is a normal phenomenon associated with stress or pregnancy. But this symptom is also due to complications of (kidney) disorders or diabetes (diabetes). Abdominal pain, a lot of hunger, a lot of thirst and a lot of urination are some of the symptoms associated with glucosuria. Thanks to a urine test, the doctor is able to detect the increased sugar level in the blood. Treatment is highly dependent on the cause of glucosuria. Thanks to a healthy lifestyle, including consuming less sugar, sugar in the urine can in many cases be prevented.
