Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Glycosuria is a term that defines the presence of reducing sugars in the urine, such as glucose, galactose, lactose, fructose, etc. Glucosuria connotes the presence of glucose in the urine and is the most frequent type of glycosuria and is the focus of this review.

Detailed explanation-2: -The primary cause of renal glycosuria is a harmful change (mutation) in a gene known as “SLC5A2” (also called the renal sodium-glucose cotransporter gene). Many inheritance patterns have been reported for renal glycosuria, and more research is needed to clarify the pattern of inheritance.

Detailed explanation-3: -Having sugar in your urine is usually a sign of very high blood sugar levels. The extra sugar in the bloodstream is usually only removed via the kidneys at blood sugar concentrations of about 10 mmol/l (180 mg/dl) and above.
