What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing yellowing of your skin or eyes, dark urine, pale stools, or unexplained abdominal discomfort. These can be signs that your liver isn't processing waste normally or that something is blocking the flow of bile. Checking for bilirubin in your urine helps identify liver or bile duct problems early, before symptoms get worse.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will show up in your account along with an explanation of what a normal versus abnormal bilirubin level means. If your result is positive, simple next steps include cutting back on alcohol, staying hydrated, and watching for symptoms like yellow skin or dark urine, plus retesting to see if the level changes. If your result suggests something serious, such as very dark urine paired with severe pain or fever, seek medical care right away. You can download a standard lab report from your account and track your results over time using the trends feature.

Who should consider this test?

Anyone noticing yellowing of the eyes or skin, unusually dark urine, or light-colored stools should consider this test. It's also useful if you drink alcohol regularly, take medications that affect the liver, or have a history of liver or gallbladder issues. People who feel unusually tired or nauseated without a clear reason may also benefit from checking their bilirubin levels.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Watch for yellowing of your skin or the whites of your eyes, urine that looks darker than usual, or stools that appear pale or clay-colored. Itchy skin, fatigue, nausea, or pain in your upper right abdomen can also point to a liver or bile duct issue. If you notice any combination of these signs, this test can help figure out what's going on.

How can I naturally support liver health?

Cutting back on alcohol, staying well hydrated, and eating a balanced diet with plenty of vegetables and fiber can help your liver function better. Avoiding excess sugar, fried foods, and unnecessary medications also reduces strain on your liver. Regular exercise and maintaining a healthy weight support overall liver and bile flow health.

What is bilirubin and why does it matter?

Bilirubin is a yellow substance made when your body breaks down old red blood cells, and it's normally processed by your liver and removed through bile. Bilirubin isn't usually found in urine, so its presence can signal that your liver is struggling or that bile flow is blocked somewhere. Catching this early can help you address liver or bile duct issues before they become more serious.

What does a positive bilirubin result mean?

A positive result means bilirubin is showing up in your urine, which usually points to a liver problem or a blockage in the bile ducts. This can happen with conditions like hepatitis, gallstones, or other issues affecting how your liver processes waste. It's a signal to look closer at your liver health, often alongside other tests, and to make lifestyle adjustments like reducing alcohol intake while you retest.

What causes bilirubin to appear in urine?

Common causes include liver inflammation from infections like hepatitis, liver damage from heavy alcohol use, gallstones blocking bile ducts, or other conditions that slow down normal bile flow. Certain medications and rapid breakdown of red blood cells can also contribute. Identifying the cause often requires looking at your full health picture, including symptoms and other lab values.

How often should I retest?

If your first result is positive or borderline, retesting in a few weeks after making lifestyle changes can help you see if the level is improving. If you have ongoing risk factors like ongoing alcohol use or known liver conditions, checking every few months can help you stay on top of things. Your trends feature makes it easy to compare results over time.

What should I do if my results are abnormal?

Start by cutting back on alcohol, staying hydrated, and eating liver-friendly foods like leafy greens and whole grains. Keep an eye out for worsening symptoms such as increased yellowing, severe pain, or fever, and seek medical care if these occur. Retesting after a few weeks can help you track whether your levels are moving back toward normal.
