I drink 4.5 to 6 liters of water every day, but my urine is still deep yellow. My liver function tests are all within the normal range. I am not dehydrated, but I am very concerned and confused. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

Dark yellow urine despite high water intake with normal LFT may be due to diet (B vitamins, beetroot), supplements, or concentrated morning urine. It can also occur with high uric acid. If no burning, pain, or other symptoms, it is usually not serious. You can do a Urine Routine and Uric Acid test to rule out other causes. If persistent or with other symptoms, consult your doctor.

View allI am taking antibiotics for a urinary infection. I want to know the time gap that should be given between the antibiotic Zocef and Cital syrup. I am taking Zocef after meals, so after how much time should I take Cital syrup? I have attached my urine report. Also, how much should I take 5 ml or 10 ml, and should it be twice or thrice daily?

My mother, age 59, had itching near the urinary area along with white discharge. She is on medication for sugar and blood pressure. We visited a gynecologist and she told us to do a NILM Pap smear test. The report says reactive changes observed associated with inflammation and atrophy. What does this mean? The gynecologist is on a one week leave. Is it anything to worry about?

In March, I got my urine tested, and it showed 10 to 13 RBCs per HPF. Sometimes I also face problems with IBS. In the past, I was diagnosed with UTI. During my pregnancy, there were consistently 5 to 6 RBCs in my urine reports. I had a C section delivery. Is the presence of RBCs in urine a matter of concern?
