It is "Ideopathic". I'm not GD, no birthdefects showed up on any of the 6 U/Ss I had (one was a level II), and I'm not Rho-negative. I don't know the exact number but it was low end of high.
I had an epiphany that this may be my MO for the 3rd trimester. Looking back at my last 2 babies, my uterus was measuring very large late in the pregnancy even though I didn't have babies that were excessively large. 2nd DD was breech and the inversion was a piece of cake at 39 weeks.
The only other issue that popped up about the same time was high blood pressure that I could control by diet. If I reduced my salt intake next to nothing, my blood pressure was normal. Of course, I didn't do this until the last 2 weeks of the pregnancy back then...
I am theorizing that if I reduce salt (and I guess sugar but I'm not a sweet tooth anyway) and take the Nat Mur as a salt balancing remedy, I should reduce my amniotic levels to normal. My next U/S is Dec 29th so I should know then how the situation improved.
I was curious to know if there were some women it didn't work in, or if mamas changed their diet, etc... I've got 8 weeks (I hope) to figure this out.

What is your UTI?
You might have some success with it but nothing helped mine.
Polyhydramnios alone isn't a reason to risk out. 80% of polyhydramnios cases are idiopathic. Cutting out sugar is also supposed to help.
