Pink or red urine
Pink or red urine can sometimes be caused by foods such as beets or by certain medications. However, it can also be a sign of blood in the urine.
Important: If you are not sure why it happened, or if it does not go away, speak with a healthcare professional.
When should you ask for advice?
Temporary color changes are often harmless, especially after certain foods or vitamins. But if an unusual color continues for more than a day or two, or comes with pain, fever, tiredness, or other symptoms, it is better to ask a healthcare professional.
Conclusion
Checking urine color can be a simple way to stay more aware of your hydration. It only takes a few seconds, but it may help you notice when your body needs more water or when it is better to ask for medical advice.
