Urine color is affected by food colors, blood, chemicals, disease, supplemens, and medications. If you have recently had a change in your diet, or begun taking supplements or a new medication, this is probably the cause of your green urine.
Cloudy urine may indicate the presence of mucus, pus, or blood. Alternatively it can be due to sediment that forms when some of the constituents of urine, such as phosphates or urates, form tiny crystals. If you have no symptoms, then the cloudiness may be due to the presence of normal vaginal mucus.
It would be a good idea to report what you’ve noticed to your doctor, and to arrange for a sample to be sent to the laboratory for analysis. Any blood, pus, crystals, or infection will be reported. If you have symptoms of thrush such as itching, soreness, irritation, or a thick white discharge, then it would be wise to get treatment from your doctor. If your urine test is reported as normal there is no need to worry. Drinking plenty of water will reduce your chances of having problems with urine infections.

You better go to the doctor. Just a simple urinary tract infection is no big deal, but if you let it go, it could go to your bladder, and then your kidneys.
You'll probably have to take a round of antibiotics, but that should be the extent of it, and you'll be glad you took care of it as quickly as you did. Just ask anyone who has had a bladder or kidney infection.
Many of the B vitamins can cause your urine to turn green or kind of neon, but that should go away within 3 or four hours of consuming the vitamin (Red Bull and other energy drinks, and vitamin water often have a lot of vitamin B, too). But the fact that it seems to be consistently green and especially the fact that it is cloudy suggests something else is going on.
Just go to the dr (these kinds of infections are common, you'll be far from the first your doctor has seen with it) and take ALL your Rx on time and you will feel a lot better.
Do this and you'll be fine.

green is the color of infection unless you are taking a vitamin, mineral , or medication which causes the green. Go to doctor please. The cloudiness is a concern, too.

Excessive salt intake can cloud your urine and give it a slightly greenish tinge. But you're best move is to see your doctor....

GET some cranberry juice. DRINK 6oz three times a day. SEE if that will help you. CRANBERRY helps clear up infections a lot of time. IF it continues after that see a DR.
