A member asked:

My urine looks seperated like oil in water. what causes it to appear like that? i don't have discharge or infections

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Difficult to tell: Without seeing the urine and testing it, it is almost impossible to know what this is, but you should not be concerned with the appearance of the urine unless you are symptomatic in some fashion. May well be diet related.
