Nephrotic syndrome is a lifelong disease and can only be treated by medication and other means to reduce the rate of recurrence. There is no clinical statement on how long it takes for nephrotic syndrome not to recur before it is considered good. Clinically, we generally say whether it is in remission, not whether it is cured. Nephrotic syndrome mainly includes five pathological types, which are microscopic lesion type, membranous nephropathy, thylakoid proliferative glomerulonephritis, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, and thylakoid capillary glomerulonephritis, of which the first two types are more common. Patients with microscopic nephrotic syndrome are more sensitive to hormones, and hormone therapy is effective, but the relapse rate is high. In contrast, the treatment of membranous nephropathy requires the combined use of hormones and immune agents, and the relapse rate is lower. After being cured by active treatment and paying attention to lifestyle habits for a long time, etc., the disease may not recur for life, but it will also recur again once triggering factors appear. Therefore, patients with nephrotic syndrome should strictly follow medical advice, develop good habits of life and rest, and avoid staying up late and overworking.
