For the passed couple of days I've noticed my urine is very dark/bright yellow. Normal?

I have a OB appt on Tuesday so I'm gonna ask them then, but did anyone else experience this?

Thank you all so much, I hate googleing this crap because I always end up finding the one "rare" disease I then convince myself I have lol.

When mine looks like that it is due to the increased vitamins....just me...also when dehydrated....gotta get the pee to almost clear color...are you urinating a lot?

I am urinating a lot, I have been taking more B-12 than normal b.c it was low last time, I know you can pee that out. I might be dehydrated too, been trying to drink a lot, but sometimes it's hard.

Thanks :)

You may be a little dehydrated. Your pee should be very light to almost clear. That will tell you how well you are hydrating. Other than that, I'm not sure on the color of pee.

my pee is bright yellow too lately...in the morning, then the more water I drink the clearer it is...but always bright in the morning...

It can be from B vitamins too!

I look at pee, test pee and deal with pee on a daily basis. So I am confused by the bright & dark description.

I will say that dark usually means more water is needed.
