Brief Answer:
24 hour urine protein test
Detailed Answer:
Hello Madam,
I am not aware if you had any other medical problems.
Albumin is present in urine in most healthy people as well. Some medical conditions, medicines, dehydration, fever all can cause albumin in urine. It does not necessarily require treatment. Now the next thing is to know the Urine albumin/creatinine ratio. Also you should get 24 hour urine protein test, wherein you need to pass urine in a can for 24 hours and give it to lab. They will measure total protein excreted in one day. ON that basis the treatment is given.
