A member asked:
Had urine analysis, rbc 0-2 / wbc 1-2 / epithelial cells : present / phosphates (++++). is it normal? what does phosphates indicate?
4 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Normal: The whole test looks normal. Phosphate is waste product which has meaning in context. It's presence in urine is normal and has no significance in itself. Sometimes in infections or stone disease it may be more, but the rest of th urine would be abnormal too.

Phosphates: Most likely you have phosphate crystals that were detected in the urine. Chances are it is transient and may or may not related to infection. Next time they check it, it may be normal. If still present, it may indicate that you do put out phosphate salts and may be prone to the development of phosphate contained stones.

UA: Normal.. Phosphates are waste products of your diet.. It can be a component of kidney stones and can be associated with infection stones.. You may not be drinking enough fluids.
