What a high Microalbumin means, and common causes

Small amounts of albumin are leaking into urine, which is the earliest detectable sign of kidney damage in diabetes and high blood pressure.

Common causes: Early diabetic kidney disease, high blood pressure, urinary infection, fever, heavy exercise before the sample, and heart failure.

What a low Microalbumin means, and common causes

A normal result means no detectable early kidney leak.

Common causes: Not applicable. Lower is the healthy direction.

Frequently asked questions

Under 30 mg/g on the albumin to creatinine ratio, which is the form most labs report.
Because it detects kidney damage years before creatinine rises, at a stage where treatment can still change the outcome. Annual testing is standard.
Diabetes aur BP mein kidney par asar shuru hone ka sabse pehla sanket yahi deta hai, creatinine badhne se kaafi pehle.
