no 1.8
i have same result which is Urobilinogen <2 and the doctor says dont worry about it. drink plenty of water though.
Yes, hepatitis C can cause elevated urobilinogen levels in urine due to liver damage and impaired function. As a result, the liver may not be able to properly process bilirubin, leading to increased levels of urobilinogen in the urine.
Urobilinogen is colourless but may react with reagents to form a pink colour for lab analysis. Dr Pete Chamberlain
It's the bilirubin found in an urinalysis.
urobilinogen
Urobilinogen is a byproduct of bilirubin degradation in the intestines and is excreted in urine, while porphobilinogen is an intermediate in heme synthesis and is not normally found in urine. In laboratory testing, urobilinogen is detected using a reagent strip test, while porphobilinogen is detected using specific biochemical assays like Watson-Schwartz test or Ehrlich's test.
Urobilinogen refers to the presence of bilirubin in the urine. Bilirubin is an enzyme that comes from the liver, and if it shows up in urine, that typically means that a person has a serious illness. The illness could be anything from gallstones to anemia, since bilirubin in the urine could be caused by many different things.
