Proteinuria 3+ in women does not necessarily necessitate nephropuncture. Urine protein 3+ in women suggests proteinuria, which is divided into physiologic and pathologic. Physiological does not need to do renal puncture; pathologic including membranous nephropathy, diabetic nephropathy, lupus nephritis, etc., may need to do renal puncture, in order to clarify the diagnosis, guide the treatment and so on.
1. Physiological: proteinuria may occur after strenuous exercise, fever, low temperature environment, consuming large amount of high protein food, and it will usually return to normal after removing related factors, so there is no need to do kidney puncture.
2. Pathological: seen in membranous nephropathy, diabetic nephropathy, lupus nephritis, may need renal puncture examination, in order to clarify the type of pathology, targeted treatment and so on.
