Worried about Blood in Urine?

Blood in urine could be a sign of infection or kidney stones.

Blood in the urine is not a normal finding, but it is not uncommon and not necessarily a cause for alarm. Your healthcare practitioner will investigate further to determine the source and underlying cause. Blood in the urine is termed hematuria. Several factors can cause hematuria, including UTI, kidney infection, menstruation, and strenuous exercise.

How to test blood in urine?
A microscopic urine exam or a urine dipstick (test strip) can check the presence of blood in the urine. A dipstick test, often available by prescription, can detect even trace levels of blood in the urine.
