Hydration status: It is hard to tell exactly what is happening just by the color. If this is not the typical color or if you are concerned can check urinalysis at your doctor's office. Having said that, the color when darker may also represent the amount of water you drink. If the urine quantity is low the concentration of pigments in the urine is higher and it will appear darker.
