Many people find that their urination sometimes has a bubble. What is going on? The formation of foam in the urine is mainly related to the surface tension of the urine liquid.
When our bodies are in different health conditions, our urine composition will also change, which will increase the surface tension of the urine and cause foaming.
There are two reasons for the foam in the urine, one is the pathological cause; the other is the non-pathological cause.
Pathological cause
1. Proteinuria: Abnormally elevated protein content in urine is one of the most common causes of foamy urine. There is a secondary appearance of foamy urine in proteinuria. This layer of urine floats with a layer of fine foam for a long time. Does not disappear.
2. Urinary tract infections: Common urinary tract infections include urinary tract infections, cystitis, prostatitis, etc., mostly accompanied by frequent urination, urgency, dysuria and other symptoms.
3. Increased urine sugar: Diabetes patients with elevated blood sugar, secondary to elevated urine sugar, easy to produce foam urine, but this foam is generally larger, and soon disappeared.
4. Other reasons: If the man has prostatitis, the urine may carry the prostatic fluid, which will have oil beads on the surface of the urine, showing a small bubble bubble state.
Non-pathological cause
1. There is a semen component in the urethra, which can be seen in retrograde ejaculation, which is common in patients with diabetes and autonomic dysfunction.
2. When the urination is too fast or the urination is too high, it is easy to form foam, but the foam is easy to dissipate.
3. Urine concentration. Drinking too little, excessive sweating, diarrhea, etc., the human body is concentrated due to insufficient water, resulting in higher concentrations of protein and other components in the urine.
4. Other reasons. Disinfectants and detergents in the urinal are also one of the causes of foam formation in the urine. Occasionally, foamy urine is mostly physiological, don't worry.
