Please explain what it means (medically) that my urine is dark yellow in color?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It usually means: That you need to drink more water. Your kidneys are working fine but your urine should be light and straw colored if you have been drinking enough water. Fluids with caffeine don't count because they dehydrate you. You should have 8 full glasses of water a day!
