My mother has been experiencing frequent changes in urine color for some time.
The urine is often dark yellow or whitish, and sometimes light yellow.
She has been on
diabetes (
sugar) tablets for the past 6 years. Her sugar levels are generally under control.
There are no other noticeable symptoms such as:
Burning sensation while urinating
Pain
Fever
Swelling
Weakness
Weight loss
An important observation is that after drinking sufficient water, the urine color becomes white/clear, which suggests a relation to hydration.
She is otherwise doing well and does not have any major complaints apart from this urine color variation.
We would like to understand:
Whether this could be related to dehydration, diabetes, or
kidney/urinary function
If any tests or medication review are required
