What Causes Pink Coloured Urine?

This morning I had reddish/pink urine - the first urine of the day. All the others today have been clear. Then my b.m. this morning had a reddish exterior that kind of went of of the b.m. into the toilet water. I ve eaten a lot of blueberries/cherries/thimbleberries in the last few days. I had beets about 4-5 days ago. I read in one place that vit b can turn urine red/pink and I ve had a couple of vit b pills in the last 4-5 days. What do you think?

Hello,
It could be the cherries. I would suggest cutting out all cherries and beets and if it persists see your doctor. Also if you develop any symptoms like pain or needing to urinate frequently see a doctor right away
