Urine Test Normal Range — Urinalysis Values
Understand your Urine Test (Urinalysis) report — normal values, what abnormal results mean, and when to get tested.
What is Urine Test (Urinalysis)?
A urine test (urinalysis) is a simple, non-invasive test that provides valuable information about kidney health, urinary tract infections, diabetes, liver disease, and other conditions. A routine urine test includes physical examination (colour, clarity), chemical analysis (pH, protein, glucose, blood), and microscopic examination (cells, bacteria, crystals). It is one of the most commonly ordered tests in healthcare.

What Do Abnormal Results Mean?
Colour
Dark amber/brown: dehydration, liver disease. Red/pink: blood, beets. Orange: dehydration, medications
Clear/colourless: overhydration, diabetes insipidus
pH
Alkaline urine: UTI, kidney stones (calcium phosphate), vomiting, vegetarian diet
Acidic urine: high-protein diet, diabetes, dehydration, kidney stones (uric acid)
Specific Gravity
Concentrated urine: dehydration, heart failure, liver disease
Dilute urine: excess water intake, diabetes insipidus, kidney damage
Protein (Albumin)
Kidney disease, diabetes nephropathy, UTI, fever, heart failure, preeclampsia in pregnancy
Normal — absence of protein is expected
Glucose (Sugar)
Diabetes (blood sugar above 180 mg/dL spills into urine), gestational diabetes, renal glycosuria
Normal — absence of glucose is expected
RBC (Red Blood Cells)
UTI, kidney stones, kidney disease, bladder cancer, menstrual contamination
Normal
WBC (Pus Cells)
Urinary tract infection, kidney infection, vaginal contamination
Normal
Bacteria
Urinary tract infection (UTI), contamination during collection
Normal

What does protein in urine mean?
Protein in urine (proteinuria) may indicate kidney damage, especially in people with diabetes or hypertension. Trace protein can be normal after exercise or fever. Persistent protein in urine needs further evaluation with a kidney function test.
What does pus cells in urine mean?
Pus cells (WBC) above 5 per HPF usually indicate a urinary tract infection (UTI). High pus cells with bacteria confirm UTI. Treatment includes antibiotics prescribed by a doctor based on urine culture results.
What does glucose in urine mean?
Glucose in urine usually means blood sugar is above 180 mg/dL, which spills into urine. This is seen in uncontrolled diabetes. If you have glucose in urine, a blood sugar test and HbA1c should be done.
How to collect a urine sample properly?
Use a clean, dry container. For midstream clean-catch: start urinating, then collect the middle portion in the container. This reduces contamination. Morning first sample is best as it is more concentrated.
