About Calcium, Urine Test in Compton
A urine calcium test quantifies how much calcium leaves the body through the kidneys.
Calcium is an essential mineral involved in bone structure, nerve signaling, muscle contraction, and blood clotting. The kidneys filter calcium from the blood and adjust how much is reabsorbed or excreted, helping keep blood calcium within a narrow range.
Urine calcium is typically measured from either a single sample or a timed collection, most often over twenty-four hours. A timed collection is generally preferred because calcium excretion varies throughout the day, and a longer sample gives a more representative picture of total output.
Results are interpreted alongside blood calcium, kidney function tests, and clinical history. Elevated urine calcium can occur with hyperparathyroidism, certain cancers, sarcoidosis, or excessive vitamin D intake, while low urine calcium may reflect reduced intake, impaired absorption, or certain kidney or hormonal disorders.
