Bright urine?

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
I just started Source of Life prenatals and my urine is bright yellow. Is this normal or should I be concerned? Should I switch? Thanks for any advice. This is wierd!

normal

the vitamins make your pee bright yellow/ greeny (like day glo). Happens to me anytime I take a vitamin supplement too.

Very normal. It's your body's way of getting rid of the excess water soluable vitamins, like Vitamin C.

Yup - flourescent.

This happens to my son when he eats a lot of citrus. It's likely your body getting rid of vitamin C, as a previous poster said.

it's extremely common for folic acid supplements to turn your urine neon yellow. pg vitamins tend to have higher levels of folic acid, so i'd call it perfectly normal unless the urine is cloudy (possible UTI), deep amber (possible dehydration), or uncomfortable to pass (possible UTI).

hope this helps!

First one or two times in the morning after taking my prenatals I have some neon-ish pee as well. I drink plenty of fluids though, and the color usually fades out by noon.

My husband takes B vitamins and this makes his pee BRIGHT YELLOW. So yeah no worries

I was going to say, here I thought it was the B vitamins. Clearly, there are things in vitamins which can turn your urine funny colors! Happens to me and my boys, too. It's usually only once or twice at a certain point in time after the vitamins - not constant.

Yep. Hubby and I both have neon pee. His is from b-complex and mine is from Rainbow prenatals (which also have b-complex).
