Urine Mucus
Mucus is a stringy, gel-like material produced by the lining of the urinary and genital tracts. Small amounts routinely appear in urine.
A little mucus is normal and usually not a concern. Larger amounts, especially with other findings like bacteria or white blood cells, can sometimes accompany irritation or infection of the urinary tract.
A larger amount of mucus may reflect irritation, inflammation, or contamination from genital secretions, and occasionally accompanies a urinary tract infection when seen with other abnormal findings. It is interpreted in context rather than on its own.
Little or no mucus is a normal, unremarkable finding.
A small amount of mucus is normal. Your clinician considers it meaningful mainly when it appears alongside symptoms or other abnormal urine results.
