Can Semen Associated Urine Sample Led To Elevated Microalbumin Level Test Result?

I just had my urine checked and the levels for microalbumin were like 200. I did have sex that morning with my wife and have had trouble with E.D. and ejaculation. Is it possible that some semen was still leaking from my penis in my urine sample that morning that caused the high protein level?

Hi there,

The presence of microalbumin has nothing to doe with semen leaking from your penis. Microalbuminuria is a sign of kidney infection.

You night to take a course of antibiotics. Before that, I advise to discuss with your doctor to culture your urine and run sensitivity testing to find out the most sensitive antibiotic at your case.

Hope it helped!
