Question 5

my friend told me that she is peeing green urine and the color is staining her undies what can be the cause of it?

Accepted Answer

Infection?: Colored urine usually is due to various foods, although it is possible a urinary tract infection with certain bacteria could do this. However, I wonder if the main problem is vaginal discharge. Colored vaginal discharge usually means an infection, including STDs if at risk. If the color and/or staining continue more than another day or two, or if at STD risk, your friend should see a doctor soon.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

I suppose: That "alive" is a trade name. Perhaps that is the cause since you do not know the ingredients.

Question 7

meaning of green urine my pee is green

Accepted Answer

Your : Your urine color generally depends on what you eat.  The one caveat here is if you have visible blood in your urine.  If this is the case than you should see your physician as soon as possible.  As long as the color returns to a more normal color with hydration, i wouldn't be too concerned.

Question 8

is green urine is nrmal?iam taking vitamins b tablets

Accepted Answer

No. Try this out:: Green urine is not normal (one of my definitions of normal is if I have had it's more likely to be normal and I have never had green urine :). 
B vitamins, esp. B1 and B2 can cause urine to become bright yellow. Try stopping B vitamins; if urine returns to normal they are causing this- in this case you can restart, as it is not a problem. If it stays green then see a doctor to evaluate!

Question 9

my mum is 72 and she has green urine and she has gone to the bathroom 4 times this morning.

Accepted Answer

Bladder infection?: Your mother should see a doctor to have her urine tested for infection. Urinary frequency and discoloration may be the only signs in an older person, though she could also develop blood in her urine, urinary urgency, and pain with urination. Left untreated these can progress to kidney infections. Please make arrangements for an appointment today so she can begin antibiotics if needed.

Question 10

i have been having bright yellow (almost green) urine. what could this mean? how can i fix it?

Accepted Answer

Urine: Bright yellow urine is not necessarily abnormal and can be seen after taking some B vitamins or not drinking enough fluids. If you have further concerns have your physician order a urinalysis.
