What causes yellow urine after childbirth?

Women's bodies are usually weak after giving birth, so don't make a fuss during this period. If your urine is yellow when you go to the toilet, it is due to a suppurative reaction in your urinary system. After it happens, you need to find out the cause of the disease first, so that you can better find a way to treat it.

In addition, yellow turbid pyuria is a manifestation of suppuration of the urinary organs.

Blue urine - can be seen in cholera, typhus, primary hypercalcemia, and vitamin D poisoning. But this color of urine is mostly related to medication, not caused by disease. It may occur after taking the diuretic triamterene, injecting methylene blue, or taking methylene blue, indigo carmine, creosote, or salicylic acid. It will disappear upon stopping the medication. This blue urine caused by medication is a normal phenomenon and there is no need to worry too much.

Green urine - seen when Pseudomonas aeruginosa grows in the urine, or when bilirubinuria is left for too long and oxidized into biliverdin.

① Light green urine: seen after taking large amounts of anti-inflammatory drugs.

②Dark green urine: The reason is the same as blue urine.

③Black urine: Black urine is relatively rare and often occurs in patients with acute intravascular hemolysis, such as patients with malignant malaria. It is medically known as blackwater fever, which is one of the most serious complications of malignant malaria. The plasma of such patients contains a large amount of free oxygen, hemoglobin and oxyhemoglobin, which are excreted in the urine, causing the urine to be dark red or black.

A small number of patients may also experience dark urine after taking levodopa, cresol, phenylhydrazine, etc., which will disappear after stopping the medication. Patients with paroxysmal myoglobinuria will also excrete brown-black urine after exercise, accompanied by muscle weakness, which may gradually develop into paralysis. In addition, dark urine can also be seen in phenol poisoning, melanoma, and alkaptonuria.

④ Brown urine (like the color of soy sauce): It can be seen in acute nephritis, acute icteric hepatitis, renal crush injury, large area burns, hemolytic anemia, wrong blood transfusion, and even after strenuous exercise, the urine may be like soy sauce. Sometimes the urine is brown after waking up from sleep, which is a characteristic of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.

If this kind of urine occurs after eating green broad beans, you should be alert to favism. The patient's red blood cells lack a substance called 6-phosphate glucose dehydrogenase, which is somewhat hereditary. Therefore, if you develop brown urine, fatigue, dizziness, nausea, yellow skin and eyes after eating broad beans, you should go to the hospital for emergency treatment in time to prevent accidents.
