# Iodine, Urine With Creatinine Ratio

> This test measures the amount of iodine in your urine compared to creatinine, a substance used to adjust for how diluted the urine is. Because the body eliminates most iodine through urine, this result helps show whether your current intake is too low or too high for proper thyroid function.
