Brief Answer:
few possible causes

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome to HCM. he most common causes are benign and colorless urine may b caused by too much liquid intake or caffeine intake or other diuretics.
More serious causes include Kidney disease and you should rule this out by visiting nephrologist. Rarely it can be caused by Diabetes insipidus,a hormonal disorder.

You should first cut down on your fluid and caffeine intake. But if your clear urine is not due to too much fluid intake or medication, you need to take further tests to find out if you have a kidney problem

Wish you good health. Regards
