Causes of cloudy urine in pregnant women

Many pregnant women have turbid urine, which makes them very worried. They are afraid that their turbid urine will seriously affect the development and health of their children. Therefore, they want to fully understand the reasons why pregnant women have turbid urine. The following content provides a detailed introduction to this aspect. For many pregnant women, they can fully understand the reasons.

Pyelonephritis is an infectious inflammation of the renal pelvis and calyceal mucosa, renal tubules, and renal interstitium caused by direct invasion of various pathogenic microorganisms. In recent years, it has been found that pathogen antigens exist in the renal scar tissue of some patients with pyelonephritis, indicating that immune renal tissue damage can also be one of the causes of inflammation in the pathogenesis of pyelonephritis.

1. Pathogenic bacteria:

The most common pathogenic bacteria causing pyelonephritis is Escherichia coli, followed by Escherichia coli, Proteus, and Streptococcus faecalis.

2. Transmission routes:

1. Ascending infection: Ascending infection is the most common route. When the body's resistance is reduced and the urethral mucosa is slightly damaged, bacteria can easily invade the bladder and kidneys and cause infection. Because the female urethra is much shorter and wider than the male urethra, the urethral opening of female babies is often contaminated by feces, making it easy to get sick. Bacteria that ascend to the kidneys first invade the renal pelvic mucosa, causing inflammation, and then ascend through the renal calyces, papillae, and renal tubules to invade the renal parenchyma.

2. Hematogenous infection: Bacteria invade the bloodstream from lesions in the body and reach the kidneys, causing inflammation. In hematogenous infection, the bacteria first reach the renal cortex, where they form numerous small abscesses, and then spread downward along the renal tubules to the renal papilla and renal pelvis.

3. Lymphatic tract infection.

4. Direct infection: When trauma or infection occurs in organs adjacent to the kidney, bacteria can directly invade the renal veins and cause inflammation.

The above content provides a comprehensive introduction to the reasons why pregnant women's urine is turbid. For many pregnant women who encounter this situation, they must pay attention to it. After understanding the cause, they should undergo comprehensive treatment as soon as possible to make their urine turbid. Only through comprehensive treatment can they recover, so as not to affect the health of their baby.
