There is nothing to worry about! This is normal!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about all the disturbing thoughts you have related to the color of this urine. The color of urine to a great extent is determine by its concentration. When we drink much water, it would be clear, If we exercise, it would be dark, etc.
This means that changes in the color of urine that are not permanent and nor accompanied by any other symptoms like pain, frequent urination in small quantities, etc. are really of no pathological meaning.

In all, there is nothing to worry about. If there are any other symptoms that make you concern, please let me know of and I would provide more insights taking that into account.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thank you so much for using our services today.
