Creatinine

  Creatinine is a breakdown product of creatine phosphate from muscle and protein metabolism. It is released at a constant rate by the body.   Creatinine  is produced from creatine, a molecule of major importance for energy production in muscles. Approximately 2% of the body's creatine is converted to creatinine every day. Creatinine is transported through the bloodstream to the kidneys. The kidneys filter out most of the creatinine and dispose of it in the urine. Although it is a waste, creatinine serves a vital diagnostic function.

It is for this reason that standard blood and urine tests routinely check the amount of creatinine in the blood. Medical Definition of Creatinine Creatinine:...

But if a cyst becomes large, it can twist, rupture, or bleed and can be very painful. What causes functional ovarian cysts? A functional ovarian cyst forms because of slight changes in the way the ovary makes or releases an egg. There are two types of these cysts: A follicular cyst occurs when a sac on the ovary does not release an egg, and the sac swells up with fluid. A luteal cyst occurs when the sac releases an egg and then reseals and f...
