It's important to take note of how your urine looks like (note the colour) as well as the sensation when passing it. The colour of urine can tell if some organs aren't functioning well, if there's a deficiency (an indication to improve diet/ load on vitamins) and the general state of being.
For instance if there's blood in the urine this may point to problems with the kidney, urinary tract, urethra or bladder.
Check out what these colours of urine mean the next time you visit the bathroom:
1. Clear
A
clear urine is usually a sign that enough water is consumed/the body is
greatly hydrated. The clearer the urine means enough water is consumed!
And staying hydrated never harm anyone.
2. Dark Yellow
Dark
yellow is a sign indicating the need to increase fluids, it's the major
reason people are advised to take more water when the urine is dark
yellow in colour.
3. Brown
Brown
coloured urine is an indication that one is dehydrated in simple cases
but in some cases, it might be an indication of liver problem where
immediate treatment should be sought.
4. Orange
An
orange coloured urine is usually an indication of very low water intake
when it's not food colouring and in some cases it might signify a liver
condition
5. Red
When
the urine is red then there's a cause for alarm though in some cases it
may be due to certain food or colouring taken in, it could also be
anything around kidney, bladder or prostrate cancer and should be
checked immediately.
