Sugar report concern
Hello mam/Sir,
Today I took card urine test after consuming 2 packets of glucose.
After consuming two packets of glucose, I took my first urine sample two hours later for a urine card test. The result showed 3+ glucose. Is this a common or expected result after consuming the glucose solution?

Urine card tests for glucose are much less reliable than a blood test. A 3+ reading after your glucose drink doesn't confirm diabetes or gestational diabetes on its own.
Next Steps
Please get a proper blood glucose test done, a fasting and post-glucose OGTT ordered by your doctor.
Health Tips
Don't rely on a urine strip result alone, since hydration and timing can change it.
