Hello and thank you for your question!
The causes of the color changing of your urine are different. This changes may be temporary and harmless caused by eating different types of foods or taking some types of medication. The causes may also be more serious, and the color may indicate an underlying condition that needs to be treated.Orange urine may also be an indicator of dehydration. But it is usually caused by foods containing high vitamin C or carotene. Urine may turn orange after taking certain kinds of medication including some antibiotics, blood thinners, laxatives, chemotherapy drugs.
First i would recommend you to take an URINE EXAM and then do a Renal ultrasound. Based on the results, ask me here again for further information and help.
Best regards!
