Doctors state that the standard color of your urine as “urochrome.” Urine naturally has a yellow pigment. When you are always hydrated, your urine will be a light yellow, near a clear color. The fact that urine has something to do with hydration and dehydration does not mean that we should rule out health conditions as sometimes it could be a clear indication of a medical condition. Therefore we have to know what the colour of our urine means and when we should start getting worried as sometimes your urine color can be a sign of a health condition that you need to address.
Consult a doctor as soon as possible if your urine is:
- light pink or dark red (this can be a sign of a serious health condition)
- orange (which can be a symptom of kidney and bladder disease)
Here below is a chart of what a certain color of urine means.
