Common alternative units:
g/dL(×10 g/L)

What does a low result mean?

A slightly low figure may stem from generous water intake (hemodilution) or modest dietary protein intake.

What does a high result mean?

A slightly elevated concentration most commonly results from mild dehydration or recent immune activity.

Questions ready for your doctor

Bring these questions to your next consultation to discuss with your healthcare practitioner:

  • Would a protein electrophoresis panel help detail individual fractions?
  • Was this value influenced by my hydration level during the test?
  • Is there any reason for targeted follow-up?

Do you have a full blood test report?
