I'm african american female, 33yrs old and recently, I noticed my urine is a really deep yellow color. I was diagnosed with typhoid fever 4months ago, but was treated for it. I take a lot of fluid, especially water.

Im not sure because of the typhoid fever ...
yellow usually means dehydration ... OR
have you been taking a lot of vitamins lately ?
A large dose of vitamin B can cause yellow urine also ....

Our urine tells us a lot about us. Almost everything that goes wrong comes out our urine. It will change from one day to the next. People with drug problems think they can drink water to "wash" away the drugs, we see this right away. The urine is washed, we just make them come back later.
I've gone through 35- 50 urine samples a day by smell alone and could tell, about what was wrong with a person. The color is an indication sometimes. Usually when we drink a lot of water or go without, a lot of coffee, other liquids, eat beets, Asparagus, etc it all shows up.
Your urine is like a window to you Billirubin, or your Endocrine system, the part of, or I should say your organs, that clean your blood, your dead blood cells go through here, they clean them from your blood. If they're working right you should have color in your blood. Babies sometimes have to have sunlight or ultraviolet light to help mature these organs. I wouldn't worry unless you have a burning, pain or there's drastic changes and a lot of smells to go along with it. Your Thyroid is part of this.

Your mom's right. If your urine is dark yellow, you're dehydrated and need to drink more water so that you're not making your kidneys work so hard (which is not good for them and could lead to things like kidney stones (very painful).

Dark yellow urine is often a sign of dehydration or electrolyte imbalance. Your doctotr can test if you're dehydrated and your electrolyte leve;s by a blood test.

are you taking any vitamin supplements?
the body excretes any surplus - especially vitamin b - makes your wee very yellow
