Lactosuria

Description:

Lactosuria is a medical condition characterized by the presence of lactose in the urine. Normally, lactose is broken down by an enzyme called lactase in the small intestine and absorbed into the bloodstream. In individuals with lactosuria, lactose is not properly broken down and is excreted in the urine.

Sample Sentences:

  1. John visited the doctor because he was experiencing lactosuria, which caused elevated levels of lactose in his urine.
  2. Lactosuria can be a sign of a lactase deficiency or other underlying conditions.
  3. The medical test confirmed the presence of lactosuria in the patient, indicating impaired lactose metabolism.
