    It will be so cooling to perform urine testing either for drug testing or other causes I love urine tests pregnant women like me love too do this becauz it is a painless test and another thing at least you get to feel a sense of relieve after such a piss that one takes it is my view point only. Hope to take urine tests.

    So does specific gravity 1.030 means that you have an infection ?

  • @MedicalMaura
    @MedicalMaura4 ай бұрын

    Not necessarily, but there's something in there. In addition to leukocytes, blood, etc-yes, but if it's just a higher specific gravity with say higher protein it could be mucus, or kidney issues like a stone or kidney disease. I had a high specific gravity when I was having a lot of back pain, there was quite a bit of mucus in my urine probably due to the inflammation, but it was not an infection.

    @@mini2108 I've been meaning to make update videos and on how I got pregnant naturally, but the short of it is that even though I had taken letrozole for over a year, the cycle I got pregnant instead I did a little experiment and cycled dim/ dong quai similarly which I think helped in my case bc it balanced my hormones instead of what letrozole does by suppressing estrogen so you rebound and hopefully makes you ovulate. I have more videos after this one where I found out I had a uterine septum and had that surgery as well. My Marina implanted low in my uterus so that also helped since the top of my uterus doesn't have the best blood flow/ probably still has some scar tissue from where my septum was. I also used progesterone cream after I confirmed that I did ovulate to help with implantation.

    This lady has got to be the sweetest Urologist I have ever seen! It was almost like I was watching an elf on a Christmas special or something of the sort! I really lack the possibly correct way to put it; due to my lack in vocabulary, but her mimics, facial expressions, voice (And choice of words) and her all in all general presentation was just so sweat; SO like-able. Which makes my gratitude for the in-depth dive in ever greater. Ms. Maura (If you happen to read this)... I have come across your video in my basic search for "when" the test would be of most valid as since I am in a month of a sort of dry-fasting (from a few hours prior to dawn til circa: dusk). And even if only visually (in the lavatory); I can see a rather serious difference between the time of the day I happen to urinate. I have to underlined that it is very noticeable. May I please ask you if this condition would require an urinalysis per different hours? Or is there an optimal time of day that would best give a summary of what is needed to be taken from it? (And no worries if you do not read this in time... I shall be asking around prior to my testing on Monday. I just like investigating forehand) I currently have no idea why I would have need for your expertise in the long-run share of videos; but this video has won you a subscriber... Bless you!

    Thank you for your comment! I have been compared to Tinkerbell before, but I'm not sure about an elf 😂 I'm wondering what the difference is that you notice between the times you urinate? I would assume dry fasting would make you more dehydrated, and therefore, your urine would be concentrated, and more amber in color versus closer to clear when you are consuming liquids. If there is another difference than that though, I would think that could be concerning.

    @@MedicalMaura ; firstly: THANK you for your surprisingly speedy reply! And as to reply: You are just too sweet in general, and any patient in need of you in person assisting is very fortunate for too many reasons... I would consider "Tinkerbell" such a better fitting description than my unsuccessful wordings: had I not been so annoyed as a child to how jealously cruel she was able to get. I can't (and don't want to) envision your person in such tantrums. You are just such a beautiful person (Have watched a few more videos and I can now certify that it is not a fluke). But until your reply (As SERIOUSLY hasty as it was) I did a little more research, concluding that I may be required something called (Correct me if I word the terminology wrongly) "24 hour urinalysis". Thus, it is better I visit the doctor on Monday rather than the lab.... Because I have made the dire mistake of not telling my MD of this simple fact in our appointment. Shall you have developed a case related curiosity: ______________ My initial thought was also that it was due to dehydration or nutrition differences per times/hours I urinated... But interestingly, there is a noticeable difference in not just the value of the colour but the hue as well as its saturation (Yes: I am into visual arts professionally. Ever more validating my certification stated above regarding your person). A brief background is that I had a long series of months with both polyuria and polydipsia (massive amount of it sadly being; coffee) and had a detox round of 72 hours (To be clear not through my doctors advice but sort of against it) of dry fasting where I had for the first time seen colour in the urinal for a VERY long time (That was in fact this Tuesday)... But the variation has had changed from "slightly different to "surprisingly different" until today. I have sadly experienced other rather unfortunate symptoms for some time that dominated the duration of our consultation session... Hoping to conclude ""diabetes of some sort": my doctor has requested a blood test and an urinalysis. His clinic having facilities for taking a blood sample; he just gave a long list of "what I want checked" to the nurse that took three tubes... But sadly not having any urinalysis facility: he asked me to go do it elsewhere with results in by Wednesday (the Blood analysis is due then) when he shall (as I understand) consult someone. Now, I am currently not doing a OMAD fast… I do eat prior to my fasting and break my fasting with both different meals and supplements (Dietary). So most possibly (or wishfully) there is little to be concerned about the variations... Nonetheless: my thinking the matter was pretty much down to a specific hour when it is more "tell-tale" for the results... I have ignorantly not even thought it's necessity to mention this difference in Hue/Saturation/Value to him. I am now relatively educated enough to appreciate how ignorant/benighted I am... Thus, I have decided it best to request an appointment firs thing Monday. Everything stated in your reply was pretty much spot on. As a result: my ignorance led me to discover a very luminescent individual; if nothing :) Thank you SO much for the time you have already spent for me. Please do not feel any obligation to right-back; diagnose etc... You have already been over-helpful (is that a word?); and managed plant a smile on my rather upset mood of my day. Thank you dearest and bless you and yours!

    @@BlackDidThis yes a 24 hour urine test will give your doctor a better idea of daily protein and creatinine output (most commonly, but there are actually quite a few tests that can be ordered on 24 hour urine collection- which sound fancy but really it's just peeing into a container for a full day, us mixing the jug all together, analyzing an aliquot and then multiplying that by the total volume). If you are diabetic (which it seems like your doctor is leaning towards because of your previous symptoms) you would probably have these abnormal results: Glucose in urine (would just be tested from a single specimen, not a 24 hour) Could have a high microalbumin / creatinine ratio (which can be from a single urine collection or 24 hour- shows early signs of kidney damage before more overt protein is seen). High hemoglobin A1C (blood test that is the average glucose or sugar level for the last 3 months) Current High or low glucose level Insulin level or C-peptide blood test Also there are autoimmune antibodies that can be checked to confirm type 1 diabetes, but they aren't as routinely done.

Knowing myself, I would be surging the internet wondering what any of it may mean. You are too considerate/thorough.. THANK YOU! There are some abnormalities in my case that got him worried. But since some of them seem explainable through diabetes: the probability seems high, and this would pretty much simplify my case (I would hope).

    For people who want to know fake urine definitely works! I've used it many time before one of the best brands is Quick-Fix and if the test is observed and your a man, invest in the whizzanator which is a fake penis that comes in many different skin tones. Just make sure you heat up the urine until the heat strip is in the right range then use a heat pack to keep it warm. I've done it for observed tests and unobserved. I used fake pee when I got my DOT card.
