What is 24 Hrs Urinary Phosphorus?

This test measures the amount of phosphorus excreted in your urine over a 24-hour period. Phosphorus is a vital mineral that plays a key role in bone health, energy metabolism, and nerve function.

Why is this test important?

Abnormal urinary phosphorus levels can indicate issues with kidney function, parathyroid gland disorders, or problems with vitamin D metabolism. It helps in diagnosing conditions like hypophosphatemia or hyperphosphatemia, which can affect bone strength and overall health.

How to Prepare

No special preparation required. Continue your normal diet and medication unless otherwise instructed by your doctor.

Do I need to fast before my blood test?
