Patient's question:
I just carefully checked and found I'm pregnant. My careful check result is two plus signs for ketone bodies in the pregnancy test urine. Two plus signs for ketone bodies in the pregnancy test urine?Doctor's answer:
Hello, during pregnancy, if your urine ketone test shows two plus signs, this is not normal. It could be due to high blood sugar levels in your body, which may indicate gestational diabetes syndrome. You should have a pre-meal blood sugar test done at the hospital in the near future and also undergo a glucose tolerance test for a thorough diagnosis. If your blood sugar is high, it is essential to receive the necessary treatment.
