Question 1

worried about my urine color. light green. i am taking zoloft pill to start my period & xanax (alprazolam). no symptoms of uti. just finished anti biotics 4 uti?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say: But i would ask the gynecologist who is prescribing for you. Haven't heard of this with either zoloft or xanax, (alprazolam) but green food colorings that are used in some pills could do this, or it could be from certain foods, like brocolli and asparagus. Very rarely, excessive bile in the urine, from some form of gallbladder or liver problems could do this. Your doctor can do a urinalysis to check it out.

Accepted Answer

: Holding urine would not make the testicles cold or achy. Try urinating more often and see if that relieves symptoms. You may set an alarm to go off in the middle of your sleep to provide a signal to urinate. If that does not help, it would be prudent to see a doctor.
