What does it mean if your pee is luminous yellow? Is it just dehydration?

Answer 1

it usually means that u r dehydrated and need to drink more about 8 glasses a day is a good amount
OR
it could be that u have started taken vitamins therefore addin toxins to the urea makin it bright yellow

Answer 2

It's a possibility so try drinking more and see what happens. You should be drinking at least 8 glasses of water per day. Don't overdo the tea and coffee as they have a slighly dehydrating effect. If you don't like plain water use squash at a weak dilution just to dive the water some flavour.
If things don't change within a couple of days then it might be worth while consulting a doctor

Causes for Yellow coloured urine are,

Answer 4

the stronger the colour of your urine, the more dehydrated you are.

Basically if you ever feel thirsty, you are dehydrated.

You need to drink about 8 glasses of water (which can include squash but not tea, coffee or fizzy pop as these also cause dehydration!)

Answer 5

darker than normal urine is usually an indication of dehydration. but other things can cause a color change.

urine should be a pale yellow color (clear indicates that you have fluid overload or have taken in too much fluids).

your urine could be darker than normal due to other things such as
-holding it for too long
-taking vitamins
-fluids in your body have become too acidic (usually from taking the vitamins)

make sure to empty your bladder when your body tells you to-along with the color change-holding your urine could lead to a uti or bladder infection

drink plenty of fluids to make sure dehydration doesn't occur and to also help flush out any excess toxins in your body.avoid caffeine as this can worsen dehydration.

if you are taking vitamins-keep in mind that they will change the color of your urine.

Answer 6

This is urea. If is it luminous yellow, you are really dehydrated.

So drink up.

Answer 7

Not always. Excess Vitamin B or too much yeast can also cause bright yellow pee.

Answer 8

what the hell have you been drinking? any vodka wkd or something like that? are you on any medication as that can have that effect? eating asparagus can do it....but if you are dehydrated it will turn yr urine darker yellow. Try drinking lots of water and see if it improves. It could of course be that you were abducted by aliens last night and they have conducted medical experiments on you and this is some sort of radio active waste product>>>>>>>

Answer 9

Multivitamin & mineral tablets can do that...especially ones which contain zinc which is good for hair growth but makes your pee bright yellow :-)

Answer 10

No, if you are dehydrated you wouldn't have urine. You need to drink more water.That cleans out the kidneys and will turn your urine clear. Are you taking any sort of medications? Some meds can change the color of urine.
