What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing symptoms like frequent or painful urination, blood in your urine, lower back pain, or unexplained fatigue. It helps detect urinary tract infections, kidney problems, and signs of diabetes or other metabolic issues early, often before symptoms become severe. Many people use this test as part of routine wellness screening or when they notice changes in their urination habits or urine appearance.

What happens after I get my results?

You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your urinalysis findings mean for your kidney health, urinary tract, and overall wellness. These notes include personalized recommendations like hydration strategies, dietary adjustments, supplement suggestions, or whether you should follow up with a urologist or primary care doctor. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track changes in your urinary health over time using our trends feature, especially helpful if you're monitoring kidney function or recovering from a UTI.

What's included in this test?

This panel measures Amorphous Sediment, Appearance, Bacteria, Bilirubin, Calcium Oxalate Crystals, Casts, Color, Crystals, Glucose, Granular Cast, Hyaline Cast, Ketones, Leukocyte Esterase, Nitrite, Occult Blood, Protein, RBC, Renal Epithelial Cells, Specific Gravity, Squamous Epithelial Cells, Transitional Epithelial Cells, Triple Phosphate Crystals, Uric Acid Crystals, WBC, Yeast, and pH. This comprehensive urinalysis evaluates the physical, chemical, and microscopic properties of your urine to detect kidney disease, urinary tract infections, and metabolic conditions. It checks for signs of infection through bacteria and white blood cells, assesses kidney function through protein and blood detection, monitors glucose and ketones for diabetes screening, and examines cellular components and crystals that may indicate kidney stones or other urinary issues.

How should I prepare for this test?

No special preparation is typically required for a routine urinalysis. However, it's best to provide a first-morning urine sample when possible, as it's more concentrated and provides better information. Avoid excessive hydration right before the test, and inform your healthcare provider of any medications or supplements you're taking, as some can affect results. For women, avoid testing during menstruation if possible to prevent contamination.

When will I get my results?

Most urinalysis results are available within 1-2 business days after your sample reaches the lab. If a urine culture is required to identify specific bacteria, that component may take an additional 2-3 days. You'll receive an email notification as soon as your results are ready to view in your secure online account.

Who should consider getting this test?

This test is important for anyone experiencing urinary symptoms like burning, frequency, urgency, or discolored urine. It's also valuable for people with diabetes, high blood pressure, or a family history of kidney disease who need regular kidney function monitoring. Pregnant women, those recovering from urinary tract infections, and individuals undergoing routine wellness checkups should also consider this screening.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Common symptoms include painful or burning urination, needing to urinate more frequently than usual, cloudy or foul-smelling urine, or visible blood in your urine. Other signs include lower back or side pain, fever with urinary symptoms, or unexplained fatigue and increased thirst. Even without symptoms, this test is useful for routine health monitoring, especially if you have risk factors for kidney disease or diabetes.

How can I naturally support my kidney and urinary tract health?

Stay well-hydrated by drinking 8-10 glasses of water daily to help flush bacteria and prevent kidney stones. Cranberry juice or supplements may help prevent urinary tract infections, and reducing salt intake supports kidney function. Maintain a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, limit processed foods, and avoid holding your urine for long periods. Regular exercise and maintaining a healthy weight also reduce stress on your kidneys.

What does blood in urine mean?

Blood in urine (hematuria) can indicate several conditions ranging from minor to serious, including urinary tract infections, kidney stones, bladder infections, or kidney disease. In some cases, it may result from intense exercise, menstruation contamination, or certain medications. Even microscopic blood not visible to the eye should be evaluated, especially if accompanied by other symptoms or if it persists on repeat testing.

How often should I retest my urinalysis?

For routine wellness screening in healthy adults, annual urinalysis is typically sufficient. If you have diabetes, high blood pressure, or kidney disease, your doctor may recommend testing every 3-6 months to monitor kidney function. After treating a urinary tract infection, retesting 1-2 weeks after completing antibiotics ensures the infection has cleared. If initial results show abnormalities, your healthcare provider will recommend appropriate follow-up timing.
