Doctor's Assessment Included
Every result includes a professional assessment from a BIG-registered doctor. For treatment decisions, discuss your results with your GP.
Urine Blood
This dipstick result detects blood in the urine that may not be visible to the eye. Blood can come from anywhere in the urinary tract and has many possible causes, from infection to kidney stones.
What It Measures
This part of the dipstick screens for haemoglobin from red blood cells in your urine. A positive result is usually interpreted with the rest of the panel and may lead your GP to recommend further testing.
Lifestyle Tips
Intense exercise or menstruation can occasionally affect this result. If blood is detected and there is no obvious explanation, your GP can advise on follow-up.
