A member asked:
Can dehydration cause a high amount of wbc in urine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: Dehydration causes your urine to be more concentrated so it appears a deeper yellow. If the dehydration is severe and a person's blood pressure is low, it can cause acute renal (kidney) insufficiencies. As a response there may be " debris" in the urine, due to sloughing off of kidney cells due to a lack of blood flow or ischemia.
