Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that your water intake (1.5 -2 litres per day) is very low resulting into less urine output
Ideally one should drink water at regular intervals 250 to 300 ml per hour (Total consumption being 3-4 litres per day)and pass 1500 ml of urine in 24 hours..
This helps to prevent getting UTI and stone formation .
Ensure to drink more water.To keep your urine dilute.
