A very important indicator is the daily glucosuric profile. Starting from the second trimester, a pregnant woman has an increased risk of glucose in the urine, which should not be normal. This is due to physiological reasons, in particular, a large load on the pancreas and the active work of the kidneys, but it can also have pathological reasons.
To find out if the situation requires treatment or only control, urine is given according to the following scheme:
1. At 7 am - the first trip to the toilet without collecting urine.
2. First gathering - from 9 am to 2 pm.
3. The second - from 14 to 19 hours.
4. Third gathering - from 19:00 to 23:00.
5. Fourth from 23 to 6 am.
6. Fifth from 6 to 9.
Portions are not stirred, refrigerated, stored at 4 ° C. Deviations from the norm may indicate problems with the kidneys, adrenal glands, diabetes, or may simply be a physiological abnormality. To clarify the diagnosis, blood is always taken for sugar.
