What is the reason for red urine

Urine is a type of liquid excretion of the human body. It can reflect the health status of the human body. Under normal circumstances, human urine is light yellow or transparent, but sometimes people have red urine. There are many reasons for this situation. It may be a problem with the kidneys or the urinary system. The following is a detailed introduction to why red urine occurs.

Red urine in men is often caused by diseases of the urinary organs. Human urine is produced in the kidneys and excreted from the body through the renal pelvis, ureters, bladder, and urethra. If any of these organs are diseased or bleeding occurs, it can cause the urine to turn red. Common diseases that cause red urine include various nephritis, urinary tract infection, hemorrhagic cystitis, urinary tract stones, renal tuberculosis, renal tumors, kidney and urethra injuries, etc. Red urine is one of the main symptoms of the above diseases.

1. When the urine starts to be red and then becomes normal, it is usually a urinary tract infection or urethral disease.

2. If urination starts normally but hematuria occurs near the end, it is mostly due to cystitis and prostate disease.

3. If it is "hematuria throughout the whole process", the blood is dark red, which is usually caused by kidney disease.

Why is female urine red?

1. Kidney and urinary tract diseases

(1) Inflammation: acute and chronic glomerulonephritis, acute and chronic pyelonephritis, acute cystitis, urethritis, urinary tract tuberculosis, urinary tract fungal infection, etc.

(2) Stones in the renal pelvis, ureter, bladder, urethra, or anywhere else can scratch the urothelial tissue as they move, which can easily cause hematuria and secondary infection. Large stones can cause urinary tract obstruction and even renal damage.
