Yellow urine. The reasons for women bright, dark, very yellow in pregnancy-scented, white flakes. What could it be

Any reasons why the urine of women can acquire a bright yellow color, it is appropriate to determine, on the basis of features of the actual state of health of a particular person (eg, pregnancy, period menopause).

Knowing what should be a urine are normal, a woman can suspect the presence of timely pathological processes in the organism and in time to take steps to normalize their status health.

Normal color and smell of urine during pregnancy

Yellow urine (the reasons for women to bear a child, it is necessary to define as soon as possible) during pregnancy in a number of cases may signal the need for further examination of the future status of the mother and her child. Urinalysis recommended to take expectant mothers once per month (assuming no external diseases).

This frequency is a necessity for two reasons:

• during childbearing burden on the female body is doubled;
• the bladder is squeezed to increase in size uterus, which provokes disturbances in its normal operation.

To avoid false results, at the time of the biological material in the study of women should follow the basic guidelines.

They are:

• eve refuse to accept "the dye" products, e.g., beet, carrots, melon;
• before collecting the material thoroughly wash genitals;
• should take to the laboratory batch morning urine of pregnant in a sterile disposable container not later than 2-3 hours after its collection;
• prior to collection of the biological material in the container should be a small portion of morning urine "near miss".

The urine of a pregnant normally corresponds to parameters of a healthy person, not to bear a child. Urine odor should be neutral or absent altogether. Deviations in this criteria may indicate the presence of infectious processes (ammonia smell), diabetes mellitus (sweet smell) or phenylketonuria (musty smell of fish).

The color of urine healthy pregnant woman should be clear, pale straw or bright yellow. Staining of biological material in other shades indicates the presence of harmful microflora, which can be dangerous for the future mother and her child.

Does changing the color of urine during pregnancy?

Change the color of urine in pregnancy may have a physiological nature of their origin. Depending on the stage of carrying a child process (trimester) in the presence of shade to hire for the study material can be considered as the norm, which does not require medical intervention.

In the early stages

Most often in the early stages of pregnancy a woman discovers that her urine becomes darker shade. This is due to acute toxicity, which in certain cases may persist for up to 2 terms.

In order to avoid disruption to the body, occurs against a background of nausea and vomiting during the first trimester the expectant mother should drink as much pure water (in the absence of chronic diseases of the urinary system).

Other "safe" circumstances directly affect the purchase of pregnant urine color are:

• Taking some vitamin-mineral complexes which include folic acid (a mandatory additive for ingestion by women during the 1st, in some cases, the 2nd trimester pregnancy).
• Improperly organized diet (due to toxicity girl can not eat the usual way and often the basis of its menu become "bad" snacks) .Neposilnye physical activity (women are strongly engaged in activities in early pregnancy risks not only change the color of your urine, but also cause miscarriage, loading body, so staying in a stressful condition and working on limit).
• Lack of fluid intake (despite the increasing load on the urinary system during pregnancy is not recommended to reduce the amount of water consumed. This can lead to dehydration and formation of soft tissue swelling).
  
• Stress state (any changes in the psychological state of women provoke the release of the body of specific hormones (cortisol, adrenaline, TSH, etc.) that affect the hue of urine).

The later stages

Urinalysis women in the later stages of pregnancy, particularly scrutinized laboratory technicians. Seemingly insignificant changes can indicate the presence of dangerous pathologies that threaten not only the health of the mother, but also the life of her child.

3 trimester female urogenital system is loaded more than ever - the main functional organs are compressed the increased uterus, resulting in disrupted blood flow and aggravated renal disease, urinary and gall bladder, and and liver. The most dangerous condition in which changes the color of the urine of a pregnant, is preeclampsia.

Its most common manifestations include:

• sudden darkening of the urine, and its acquisition of sour smell;
• soft tissue swelling (limbs swell irrespective of the number woman fluid drunk, and the time of day and the physical activity);
• jumps in blood pressure.

In other pathological processes, provoking acquisition urine unusual shade of the expectant mother, are:

• anemia (urine becomes black hue);
  
• inflammatory kidney or bladder (urine becomes reddish);
• liver and gallbladder disease (urine turns brown);
• diabetes (colorless sweetish odor);
• diseases of the cardiovascular system (for urine characteristic dark yellow color).

The influence of urine color on the sex of the child

Yellow urine (causes in women who are in a position sometimes associated with people signs), namely the emergence of its particular hue can help identify the floor to bear a child. In line with the national sign, pregnant, expecting a daughter, will have a urine light yellow, straw color.

A woman bearing a boy at heart, take on, should have urine bright yellow.

From the viewpoint of science, the rationale for such changes in the urine is a strong stress, in which resides the female body, which provides life to the future man. Incomparability organisms, hormonal systems, and physiological characteristics of the bodies of the future mother and her child makes all the processes to transform life.

Empirical studies have shown that shade of urine is not possible to reliably determine the sex of the baby, as the color of the urine of a pregnant can affect too many external factors. Moreover, the belief in the veracity of this method of diagnosis can cause hazardous ignoring female diseases that occur in its body.

That is why the official figures of modern gynecologists do not contain any information about the reliability of determining the sex of the baby in color of urine pregnant.

Regardless of whether the expectant mother believes in signs or not, on the modification of your urine should immediately report your doctor, who will decide on the advisability of the appointment of treatment after further investigation body.

Reasons for change in the color of urine during childbearing

Yellow urine (causes women directly influence the orientation of subsequent therapy) may acquire in different time periods different shades. Understanding the reasons for modification of the urine, a pregnant can in time to see a specialist and, if necessary, to get the correct treatment for the normalization of the state of her health.

Violent yellow

The urine of a pregnant bright yellow usually when taking her vitamin and mineral supplements with folic acid in the composition. Another physiological reason for the acquisition of urine color, which does not require correction by a qualified physician is properly organized diet expectant mother food.

In protracted toxicosis, or due to changes in taste preferences of women, being in a position, often begin to lean on "coloring" the concentrated product.

These include:

• carrot;
  
• beet;
• pumpkin;
• Products with a large number of food dyes.

Despite the existence of "safe" circumstances because of which the urine can be bright yellow, pregnant when you change the color of urine should exclude the presence in the body of some features.

For example:

• Pathological processes in the kidney (adverse symptoms are reducing the amount of urine, occurrence of soft puffiness fabrics, shortness of breath, impaired appetite, jumps in blood pressure, feeling of constant fatigue and indifference to everything what is happening).
• Diseases of the genitourinary system (you can recognize by the presence of lower abdominal pain, discomfort when urinating, increased body temperature, changes in odor and color of urine, sleep disorders).
• Dehydration (characteristic of a general weakness, constant thirst, not even after the passing of fluid intake, and reduced production of the daily amount of urine).

Buff

Dark yellow urine during pregnancy indicates that the collected biological material has a high concentration. Most often this occurs because of the necessity of putting a urine test in the morning hours (at night the concentration of all components of the composition of the urine increases several times).

Also, a darker shade of urine may acquire due to light dehydration (especially true if the 2nd trimester of pregnancy occurs during the summer).

Then, in addition to the unusual color of urine, the expectant mother also could discover:

• abnormal rhythm of breathing;
• dry mouth;
• changes in skin color (whitens);
• in the absence of weeping eyes secreted tear fluid;
• acute thirst.

According to gynecologists, dark yellow urine color is also inherent in women with excessive sweating or pregnant with lingering toxicity.

Determine what these factors are the reasons for the acquisition of urine color in a particular case may be by the presence of a woman:

• vomiting;
• dizziness;
• weakness;
• excessive salivation;
• increased moisture separation in the armpits and in the folds of the skin all over the body;
• nausea.

The most dangerous state of pregnancy, in which the urine is dark, it is considered preeclampsia.

The most common symptoms of this disease include:

• high blood pressure;
• the emergence of strong swelling all over the body;
• deviations from the reference values ​​of the basic parameters of urinalysis (in particular, the concentration of protein and leukocytes).

Light Yellow

Light yellow color of urine indicates the lowest concentration of the collected biological material. This happens usually due to an excessive amount of liquid drunk eve. But, given that the analysis is delivered in the morning, and then on the collected urine can not affect the liquid, often so manifest the pathological processes of the urinary system.

Because of these diseases occurs salts leaching from the body, formed edema, circulatory system loses large amounts of trace elements. No color in the urine of pregnant not observed previously, it can also indicate the initial stage of diabetes.

Then it is important to analyze whether a woman has other major features of the disease in question:

• dry mouth and a constant feeling of thirst;
• sharp weight gain;
• excessive urination;
• general weakness;
  
• numbness of extremities.

When detecting the above expressions should be pregnant turning to the doctor as soon as possible to pass additional tests and delivery of analyzes required for the diagnosis of said disease, which represent a danger not only for its health and status but it hatched baby.

Causes of sediment in the urine of women

Yellow urine (the reasons women are identified the doctor only after a full examination of the patient's health status) can also accompanied by precipitation to the bottom of the sterile container used for collecting biological material study.

This change in urine indicates the presence of pathological processes that require immediate intervention by the gynecologist.

The reason for the formation of a precipitate in the urine	Accompanying symptoms of the disease
pyelonephritis	The sharp increase in body temperature up to the limit values; nausea, vomiting, often turning into; general weakness; aching pain in the side or back, worse when changing position; frequent urination excessive; swelling of the soft tissue, which does not depend on the amount you drink fluids and time.
Cystitis	Frequent urination, which is physically impossible to hold back; the minimum amount of urine during urination each, independent of the consumed liquid amount; maintaining a sense of fullness of bladder even after urination; sharp pain at the end of urination.
Genital diseases	Menstrual disorders; skin rash on the face, back, shoulders and décolleté; pain, worse during intercourse; itching in the genital area; unusual vaginal discharge (yellow, purulent, with a pungent odor).

Reasons for the formation of white flakes in the urine

Yellow urine should be a wake-up call for women if color change is accompanied by the formation of white flakes in it.

The reasons for these changes in the composition of urine may be:

• inflammation of the urinary system organs;
• strong imbalance of microflora in the internal and external genitalia;
• ptosis mucus plug in pregnant (biological entity exiting from the body in about 2 weeks prior to delivery);
• dehydration (white flake in this case - is excess concentrated salt);
• a specific diet, in particular, compliance with the principles of a protein diet or a vegetarian and raw food;
• excessive exercise;
• a large dose of alcohol drunk the day before;
• a recent history of severe stress.

Upon detection of the flakes in the collected biological material, a woman should pass urine again, paying particular attention to hygiene before collecting urine in a sterile container.

Who to contact?

Upon detection of changes in the composition or physical properties of the urine, it is advisable to inform the woman about it therapist or gynecologist who is knowledgeable about pregnancy and general state of health patient.

In most cases for further advice expectant mother will be directed to the urologist or nephrologists (depending on the characteristics of the pathological process). The doctor, having spent the necessary tests, prescribe medication or adjust the offer women a way of life and diet, in particular.

If during pregnancy a woman has yellow urine, this should not frighten her, as the causes may be a normal physiological changes in the body.

In spite of this, to provide confidence that the health and lives are not in danger of the little man, with an abnormal urine composition of the future mother is recommended to re-pass the biological material for research, and then consult a doctor able to exclude pathology leaked pregnancy.
