What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing frequent urination, painful urination, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, or unexplained abdominal discomfort. It helps detect kidney problems, bladder infections, diabetes, and other metabolic issues before they become serious. Many people use this test when they have urinary symptoms or as part of routine wellness screening to catch potential health issues early.

How should I prepare for this test?

No fasting is needed for this test. Simply provide a urine sample at the lab. For the most accurate results, avoid excessive hydration right before the test, and try to collect a midstream sample if possible. Your lab technician will provide specific instructions when you arrive.

What's included in this test?

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 pH

This comprehensive urinalysis evaluates kidney function through markers like protein and specific gravity, which reveal how well your kidneys are filtering waste. It screens for bladder infections by detecting bacteria, white blood cells, and nitrites that indicate infection. The test also checks for diabetes through glucose and ketone levels, identifies crystals that may lead to kidney stones, and examines blood cells and other microscopic elements that provide insights into urinary tract health.

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, bladder function, and overall wellness. These notes include personalized recommendations like hydration tips, dietary adjustments, or whether you should follow up with a urologist or primary care doctor. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your results over time using our trends feature to monitor improvements or catch recurring issues.
Who should consider getting this test?
This test is ideal for anyone experiencing urinary symptoms like frequent, painful, or urgent urination, as well as those with risk factors for kidney disease or diabetes. It's also important for people with a family history of kidney problems, those taking medications that affect kidney function, pregnant women, and anyone who wants to monitor their urinary and kidney health as part of routine wellness screening.
What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Common symptoms include frequent urination, burning or pain when urinating, cloudy or dark urine, strong-smelling urine, and lower back or abdominal pain. You might also notice blood in your urine, excessive thirst, unexplained fatigue, or swelling in your legs or feet. These symptoms could indicate kidney issues, bladder infections, or diabetes that this test can help identify.
How can I naturally support my kidney and bladder health?
Stay well-hydrated by drinking 6-8 glasses of water daily to help flush bacteria and prevent kidney stones. Limit salt, processed foods, and excessive protein which can strain your kidneys. Cranberry juice or supplements may help prevent bladder infections, and avoiding holding urine for long periods helps maintain bladder health. Regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and limiting alcohol can also support kidney function.
What does protein in urine mean?
Protein in your urine can indicate that your kidneys aren't filtering properly, which may be a sign of kidney disease, high blood pressure, or diabetes. Small amounts can sometimes appear after intense exercise or during illness, but persistent protein in urine needs medical evaluation. Your doctor may recommend additional tests to determine the cause and whether treatment is needed.
What does blood in urine indicate?
Blood in your urine can have many causes, ranging from urinary tract infections and kidney stones to strenuous exercise or menstruation. While it's sometimes harmless, it can also indicate more serious conditions like kidney disease, bladder problems, or rarely, cancer. Any detection of blood in urine should be discussed with your doctor for proper evaluation and follow-up testing if needed.
How often should I get a urinalysis?
For routine wellness screening, an annual urinalysis is typically sufficient for most healthy adults. If you have diabetes, kidney disease, or high blood pressure, your doctor may recommend testing every 3-6 months to monitor your condition. If you're being treated for a urinary tract infection or kidney issue, you may need retesting within a few weeks to ensure the problem has resolved.

What this means

Your urine protein level is slightly elevated, which may indicate your kidneys are not filtering as efficiently as they should. While this could be temporary due to dehydration or exercise, persistent protein in urine may signal early kidney stress and should be monitored closely.

* Regular blood test results (e.g., CBC) typically start arriving the next business day after sample collection. More complex tests, such as hormone panels, may take up to 10–15 business days due to their complexity.
