Proteinuria refers to excess protein in the urine. While some amount of protein in the urine is normal, excessive amounts of protein in the urine are a sign that the kidneys are not working properly due to a number of different reasons. The main protein in the blood is albumin, and this is also the main protein in urine. For this reason, proteinuria is sometimes referred to as albuminuria. Diabetes and hypertension (high blood pressure) are two chronic conditions that can cause kidney damage over time, leading to excess protein in the urine.
Protein does not typically appear in the urine in detectable quantities, according to the Edinburgh Renal Unit. Proteinuria, which is protein excretion of 150 milligrams or higher per day, may indicate kidney damage, but it can also be the result of more benign factors, including dehydration.
