Risk Factors for Proteinuria. Both diabetes and high blood pressure can cause damage to the kidneys, which leads to proteinuria. Other types of kidney disease unrelated to diabetes or high blood pressure can also cause protein to leak into the urine. Increased production of proteins in the body can lead to proteinuria.
Protein in urine is an important sign of many kidney diseases and therefore it is always tested for during a urine test. However, protein in urine also occurs because of many non-serious reasons. In fact, most people with an initial positive urine test for protein do not have any serious disease.
