it is usually due to higher protein content (in the urine). it is sometimes caused by the liver not blocking out all other chemicals. in this case, chemicals like protein are excreted as well. you are most likely taking in a higher amount of protein than usual. or maybe, it is just the angle that it hits the toilet bowl at!!!

It can be frothy due to protein leakage from the kidneys. Best to call your Dr. or preferably a Nephrologist right away.

Why does mens urine produce bubbles?

When men pee into a urinal this creates indeed a frothy foam on top of the surface. This is partially caused by a thin stream of watery liquid being shot at a relatively narrow (but deep) pool of water -- ideal froth conditions. Plus urine seems to have a higher surface tension, which is guess is owed to the presence of substances such as glucose and proteins, both of which are sticky. In my limited experience, female urine is no less frothy than men's. Only women tend to use a closet rather than a urinal when they need to widdle.
