The norm of daily urine during pregnancy.

Women are interested in how many liters of urine should be normal. The norm of daily urine during pregnancy in liters ranges from 1 to 2.

This difference is due to the following factors:

• a woman's habit of drinking a lot;

• hot (or, conversely, cool) weather;

• individual characteristics of the organism.


During physiological pregnancy, an amount close to the upper limit of the norm is produced, since the kidneys work in an enhanced mode, remove the waste products of the pregnant woman and the fetus.

The average daily volume allows you to judge possible pathologies. So, diuresis is less than normal (oliguria) can talk about kidney disease, fluid retention in the body, errors in the diet; more than normal (polyuria) - about diabetes mellitus that has begun to develop, a decrease in the resorption capacity of the renal tubules. Usually, about 2 liters or a little less is taken as the output rate.

On the day of the test, it is recommended to drink 1.5-2 liters so that the concentration of excreted substances does not decrease, which will negatively affect the results. During the collection of urine, it is necessary to record the amount of liquid drunk, liquid meals, fruits eaten.

Normally, the ratio is correct: the volume released per day is about 80% of the total fluid that enters the body per day. The remaining 20% come out with sweat, exhaled air, feces.
