Kidney disorders encompass conditions affecting the kidneys' ability to filter waste, regulate fluids, and maintain electrolyte balance. They are caused by chronic disease progression, acute injury, inflammation (nephritis), diabetes, hypertension, and autoimmune conditions damaging kidney tissue. The Urinalysis Complete Profile is the most important test for kidney disorders because it evaluates kidney concentration ability and detects protein loss indicating dysfunction.
Kidney disorders are caused by chronic diseases like diabetes and hypertension, acute injuries from infections or toxins, autoimmune diseases like lupus, genetic conditions like polycystic kidney disease, and prolonged use of certain medications. Diabetes damages the tiny blood vessels in the kidneys over time, while high blood pressure strains kidney tissue and reduces filtering capacity. Acute kidney injury can develop suddenly from severe dehydration, blood loss, infections, or exposure to contrast dyes used in medical imaging.
The Urinalysis Complete Profile is the most important test for kidney disorders because it detects protein in urine (proteinuria), measures urine concentration ability through specific gravity, and identifies cellular debris or casts indicating kidney damage. This test reveals early signs of kidney dysfunction before symptoms appear. The Chloride blood test is essential for detecting electrolyte imbalances caused by impaired kidney function, while the Protein Electrophoresis test measures total blood protein levels that drop when kidneys leak excessive protein into urine. Together, these tests provide a comprehensive assessment of kidney filtration capacity, electrolyte regulation, and protein handling.
You should get tested if you notice swelling in your ankles, feet, or hands, experience persistent fatigue or weakness, see foamy or bubbly urine indicating protein loss, notice blood in your urine, or have difficulty urinating or reduced urine output. People with diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, or a family history of kidney disease should get tested regularly even without symptoms. You should also test if you take medications like NSAIDs or certain antibiotics long-term, as these can damage kidneys over time.
What this means
Your testosterone levels are slightly below the optimal range. While this is not necessarily cause for concern, it may contribute to occasional fatigue, reduced motivation, or lower muscle mass over time.
Recommended actions
Increase resistance or strength training
Prioritize 7–8 hours of quality sleep per night, try to reduce stress
Include more zinc- and magnesium-rich foods (like shellfish, beef, pumpkin seeds, spinach)
Consider retesting in 3–6 months
Not overhyped or overpriced. Just comprehensive blood testing made simple and for everyone.
