Causes for Urinary Tract Stone Formation

Dietary factors seem to influence the type of stones that are seen among people from different parts of the world.

Hot climates and excessive sweating can cause depletion of body fluids. This can result in highly concentrated urine, precipitating, and stone formation.

Certain pathological conditions are also seen associated with formation of renal and urinary stone formation. Obstruction, or infection of urinary tract may lead to formation of phosphate stones.
The pH of urine also determines the formation of stones in the urinary tract, if alkaline, calcium phosphate stones may get precipitated.
