A urine test is one of the most simple yet powerful diagnostic tools available in modern medicine. Whether your doctor suspects a urinary tract infection, kidney problem, or diabetes, a Urine Routine & Microscopy test gives a detailed picture of what's happening inside your body — without any needles or pain. At Shanti Pathology Laboratory, we make this test easy, accurate, and accessible from the comfort of your home.
What Is a Urine Routine & Microscopy Test?
A Urine Routine & Microscopy (R/M) test is a two-part examination of your urine sample. The "routine" part checks physical and chemical properties like colour, odour, pH level, protein, glucose, and ketones. The "microscopy" part examines the urine under a microscope to detect cells, bacteria, crystals, and casts that are invisible to the naked eye.
Together, these two parts give doctors a comprehensive view of your urinary and kidney health. You can learn more about our full range of tests by visiting Shanti Pathology Laboratory – Services.
What Does a Urine Test Detect?
A Urine Routine & Microscopy test can detect a wide range of health issues, including:
Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) — presence of bacteria and pus cells
Kidney Disease — protein or blood in urine, abnormal casts
Diabetes — glucose or ketones in urine
Kidney Stones — crystals detected under microscopy
Liver Disorders — bilirubin levels in urine
Dehydration — dark colour and high specific gravity
Sexually Transmitted Infections — abnormal cells or discharge markers
Early detection through a simple urine test can prevent these conditions from becoming serious. Check out our Health Packages to find the right plan for you.
When Should You Get a Urine Test Done?
You should consider getting a urine test if you experience:
Burning sensation or pain while urinating
Frequent or urgent need to urinate
Cloudy, dark, or foul-smelling urine
Blood visible in urine
Lower back or abdominal pain
Swelling in legs or face (possible kidney issue)
Unexplained fatigue or fever

How to Prepare for a Urine Test?
Preparation is simple:
Collect a mid-stream urine sample (let the first few drops pass, then collect)
Use a clean, dry container provided by the lab
Avoid heavy exercise, certain foods (beets, berries), or supplements the night before
Inform your doctor of any medications you're taking
No fasting is typically required for a basic urine routine test.
