When you go to the lab to get a urine test, you may be asked to pee in a cup. If your urine isn't at 100 degrees, does that mean there's something wrong? No! Your body temperature can be lower or higher than 98.6 degrees, and having slightly cold or warm urine is perfectly normal.
If your urine isn't at 100 degrees, you can warm it to the right temperature.
Many people have body temperatures that are below 98.6 degrees, and this is normal. Body temperature can be affected by external factors such as exercise and illness. It can also be affected by the time of day, as well as room temperature and humidity levels.
If your urine isn't at the right temperature when you go to your appointment, it doesn't mean anything's wrong with you or your baby. There are many reasons why this happens!
If the temperature isn't over 100 degrees, but you have one of these symptoms, call your doctor or pharmacist right away.
If you don't have any of these symptoms, there's no reason to worry about warm or cold urine. If you do have one of these symptoms, call your doctor or pharmacist right away:
If you're worried about the temperature of your urine, there's no need to be. Your doctor or nurse will check the temperature and adjust it if necessary.
There are some symptoms that might indicate an underlying condition that requires further testing: fever or chills (above 101 degrees Fahrenheit), headache, muscle aches, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, pain in chest shoulder arm shortness breath
No. The lab cannot tell you if your urine isn't at the right temperature, but they do have a digital thermometer in their bathroom for you to use. It is important that your body temperature is normal when testing because it could affect the results of your test. If you are too hot or too cold, try to bring yourself back down by taking some time out of the room and drinking some water before returning for another attempt at providing a sample.
You should bring your temperature down because the lab wants to know the temperature of your urine. If it's too hot or cold, it may not be a good sample.
If you want to bring your temperature down, there are a few options.
If none of these things work for you then I would suggest talking about other options with someone who might know more than me about this subject matter because honestly I just don't know what else could possibly work here except maybe going outside during winter months since those temperatures tend toward being lower than normal room temps around here anyway so maybe try doing something like that next time instead?
What happens when your urine isn't at the right temperature?
If your lab technician determines that your sample doesn't meet their standards, they'll send it back to you. You'll have to reschedule an appointment and try again, but this time with a new sample that's been kept at room temperature for at least 2 hours prior to testing. The reason why they ask for this is because they want to make sure no bacteria has grown in your urine during those first two hours (bacteria can affect test results).
If something goes wrong and there aren't enough usable samples for everyone who needs them--say there was an accident on the highway leading up to the lab--you may not be able to get tested after all! If this happens and you're pregnant, there's even more reason not just because it could delay getting important information about whether or not there are any complications with either parent's health but also because being pregnant means certain types of tests aren't safe anymore until after birth has occurred; meaning if someone wanted something like amniocentesis done before giving birth then they would need another time frame set aside specifically just so doctors could perform these additional procedures safely without any risks involved whatsoever...
If your temperature is too high, it could mean that you have a urinary tract infection. A lab won't tell you if your urine isn't at the right temperature, so they can't help you with this issue.
If a woman's body temperature remains above 98 degrees Fahrenheit for more than 24 hours while she is pregnant, it may indicate an ectopic pregnancy (a condition in which the fertilized egg implants outside of the uterus).
If you have any concerns about your urine temperature, it's best to talk to your doctor or pharmacist. They can help you figure out if there's anything wrong with how you feel and how best to treat it.
