My Urine Color Is Not Normal, It Has Deep Yellow

Question: My urine color is not normal, it has deep yellow color.
Brief Answer:
Usually indicates dehydration
Detailed Answer:
Hello, I'm Dr. Branch, thanks for using 'Ask a Doctor'. As long as you don't have any other symptoms or history of problems with your kidneys, urine that turns a darker yellow color is usually due to dehydration. I would recommend trying to drink plenty of water for the next few days, at least 2-3 liters a day.
If you have any other symptoms, such as blood in your urine, pain anywhere, or history of kidney problems, please let me know and we can discuss that further.
I hope that helps, please let me know if you have any other questions about that, and I would be glad to discuss it with you further.
