A few questions help us personalize your report.
Urine colour ranges from pale yellow (well-hydrated) to dark amber (concentrated, dehydrated) and provides a quick visual screen for hydration status and potential pathology. Red or pink urine can indicate haematuria, haemoglobinuria, or myoglobinuria (muscle breakdown); orange urine may signal bilirubin excretion from liver disease; green-blue urine is rare and typically drug-induced. While urine colour alone is non-specific, significant deviations from the expected pale-to-medium yellow spectrum warrant dipstick and microscopic follow-up.
Dark amber urine indicates significant dehydration or liver pathology. Red or pink urine signals hematuria or beet intake. Colorless urine indicates overhydration.
Optimal is pale yellow to light straw. Persistent unusual coloration warrants investigation.
