Hypophosphatemia: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatments

Possible tests for hypophosphatemia

A blood test is used by medical professionals to identify hypophosphatemia. As other conditions are frequently the cause of hypophosphatemia, your doctor will probably request more tests to identify the underlying cause of the condition and to assess your general health.

Further testing can consist of:

  • additional blood tests, including those for calcium, vitamin D, and kidney function
  • Urinalysis
  • scanning images
