I was told today that in both my kidneys the cortex is increased in echogenicity bilaterally causing an increased conspicuity of the medullary pyramids. I m 37 with no chronic kidney disease.. what could have caused this and how can I repair my kidneys to normal?

Hello

As you explain the situation this is a very wide explanation of the result. If the kidney function is normal than it might be a normal variand of your kidneys. However talk with your doctor for the above.
