Poll of the Day > Everytime I pee, it's clear as water

(+) Yeah! (+)

And I've found a lot of contradicting information online.

Some people say it's a sign of being well hydrated. Others say even though it is indeed a sign of good hydration, it being always clear means something could be wrong with my kidneys or liver.

Should I go to a doctor? Is your pee clear as water too?

Drink a lot less than you are now and see how it goes.

Only clear on a night out or if I'm extra thirsty and drink lots of water. It is indeed a sign of hydration. I'm not sure about always. That wouldn't cost me money to look into because universal/free healthcare... but if you're in the US and it might cost you, then that's entirely up to you if you think it warrants a bill from your doctor.

Oh we have somewhat free healthcare over here in Venezuela. Hospitals don't work cause they don't have medicines and other resources, but doctors are good.

I'm no doctor, but since when do bad kidneys or liver make your pee clear?

They filter stuff. Whenever you suffer from cirrhosis or hepatitis, it turns urine dark. That means your liver is not working properly. It's only some assumptions I read about online though, I don't think my liver or kidneys are compromised.

You are saying that when you suffer from those things your urine turns dark because your liver in not working properly right. That means those same symptoms won't turn your pee clear. Right? Clear pee is the result of proper filtering right?

I've only ever heard of pee turning dark due to kidney or liver failure. I doubt if they aren't working properly they would turn it clear.

Also, I do mean clear and not cloudy or something. cause if you have clear pee but it's cloudy, that's not good I think.

Do not webmd yourself.

That's like rule #567 for sailing the internet.

Clear urine means you are over-hydrated, it should have a tint of yellow. Stop drinking so much water. You can consumer too much water. If you are peeing clear after drinking no water for an extended period of time, see a doctor immediately.

It wouldn't hurt to see a doctor. My brother is a doctor and he said although, it is not always a sign of liver or kidney problems when urine is always clear, but many people ignore it because they assume clear means everything is okay.

good hyrdration and not drinking stuff like soda will do that

How in the seven shits are you in Venezuela and with internet nonetheless?

Thought the place was a hellhole with not even Toilet Paper and basic necesities. Or so do the Venezuelan people I know say. I remember one of our clients couldn't even leave the country lol.
