# Calcium, Urine

> This test measures the amount of calcium your kidneys remove from your blood and release into your urine. It helps show whether your body is losing too much calcium, which is a common cause of kidney stones and can affect bone strength. Doctors use this information to help distinguish between different causes of abnormal calcium levels, such as parathyroid gland disorders or vitamin D issues. However, this test does not identify the specific underlying disease by itself and is typically reviewed alongside blood test results.
