What does a low result mean?
A low reading (near 1.005) simply indicates pale, well-diluted urine following generous fluid consumption.
What does a high result mean?
A higher reading (above 1.025) reflects concentrated morning urine or temporary mild dehydration.
Questions ready for your doctor
Bring these questions to your next consultation to discuss with your healthcare practitioner:
- Does this simply reflect my fluid drinking habits prior to sampling?
- Do my kidneys concentrate and dilute urine effectively?
- What daily water intake best fits my lifestyle?
