What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing urinary symptoms like cloudy urine, unusual odor, burning when you pee, or lower back pain. It's also useful if you just want a quick check on your urinary and kidney health as part of a general wellness routine. Many people use it to catch early signs of urinary tract infections, dehydration, or blood sugar issues before they become bigger problems.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will show up in your account with each measurement explained alongside its normal range, so you can see exactly what's typical and what's not. If something looks off, simple next steps like drinking more water, adjusting your diet, or retesting in a few weeks are usually a good start, and if a value looks seriously abnormal, seeking medical care right away is recommended. You can download the full standard lab report from your account at any time. The trends feature also lets you track your urinalysis results over time to spot patterns.

Who should consider this test?

Anyone with symptoms like frequent urination, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, or discomfort while urinating should consider this test. It's also a smart pick for people managing conditions like diabetes or kidney issues who want to keep an eye on things between checkups. Even without symptoms, it can be a useful part of a routine wellness check.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Common signs include burning or pain during urination, cloudy or dark urine, unusual odor, needing to pee more often than usual, or lower back and side pain. Swelling in the hands or feet can sometimes point to kidney-related issues that this test can help flag. If you notice blood in your urine, that's a reason to get tested right away.

How can I naturally support healthy urinary function?

Drinking plenty of water throughout the day helps flush your urinary system and keeps things running smoothly. Cutting back on excess salt, sugar, and caffeine can also ease strain on your kidneys and bladder. Cranberry juice or supplements are a popular natural choice some people use to support urinary tract health, and simply not holding in urine for long periods helps too.

When will I get my results?

Results are typically ready within about a week of your sample being processed at the lab. Once ready, they'll be posted directly to your online account so you can view and download them anytime.

What does it mean if protein or blood shows up in my urine?

Finding protein or blood in your urine on a dipstick test can be an early clue that something needs a closer look, ranging from minor issues like dehydration or intense exercise to more concerning kidney problems. It doesn't automatically mean something is seriously wrong, but it's worth paying attention to. Retesting after resting and staying hydrated, and watching for other symptoms, are good first steps.

What causes abnormal urinalysis results?

Abnormal results can come from simple things like not drinking enough water, eating a lot of certain foods, or recent intense exercise. They can also be caused by infections, kidney issues, or blood sugar imbalances. Certain supplements and medications can also change how your urine looks on this test.

How often should I retest my urinalysis?

If your first result was normal and you're symptom-free, retesting once a year as part of a general wellness check is plenty. If you had an abnormal result or ongoing symptoms, retesting every few weeks until things normalize is a good idea. People managing chronic conditions like diabetes may benefit from more frequent checks.

What should I do if my results are abnormal?

Start with simple steps like increasing your water intake and cutting back on salt, sugar, and caffeine, then retest in a couple of weeks to see if things improve. Keep track of any symptoms you notice, like pain or changes in urine color. If results stay abnormal or symptoms get worse, seek medical care to get it checked out properly.
