What could cause yellow urine for two months in an adult?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My urine has been yellow for the last two months. One week ago, I had a blood test, urinalysis, and LFTs. All the reports were normal.

What is the reason for the yellow color of my urine?

Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

High-colored urine can be caused by various reasons. Drinking less water in hot weather can also cause high-colored urine. Kindly reply to the below questions-

  • Are you taking any medication?
  • Is there any burning sensation or itching in the area?
  • Are you taking alcohol on a regular basis?

Also, I suggest you take the following investigations -

  • An ultrasound of the whole abdomen, specifically the liver, to rule out any liver or pancreas-related abnormality.
  • A complete hemogram to rule out any infection.

I would like you to please attach the reports so I can provide you with more details.

Regards.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

The microscopic urine examination showed no red blood cells, two to four pus cells per high-power field, and one to two epithelial cells per high-power field. No casts, crystals, or organisms were observed.

The liver function test revealed a total bilirubin level of 0.9 mg/dL (within the normal limit of up to 1.0 mg/dL), SGOT (AST) at 18 U/L, and SGPT (ALT) at 26 U/L.

Kindly suggest.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

The urine routine and serum bilirubin are within normal limits. However, there are a few pus cells. You must take plenty of fluids.

Also, start with a Citro-Soda sachet (urine alkalizer) twice daily in a glass of water. Take urine culture and other tests that were prescribed and share the reports.

Regards.

Take care.
