What causes white urine?

Everyone knows that a normal person's fresh urine is transparent, but it will become turbid after a while after being discharged from the body. If the urine is very yellow, it means you are getting too hot or you are drinking too little water. Drinking too much water will make the urine more abundant and transparent. These are all common situations. However, some people find it uncomfortable when they urinate, and what they urinate is not normal urine but white stuff. What's going on?

Urinary tract infection and prostatitis were initially considered, but other possibilities were not ruled out. Urinary tract infection is caused by direct invasion of bacteria (rarely by fungi, protozoa, and viruses). Urinary tract infection is divided into upper urinary tract infection and lower urinary tract infection. Upper urinary tract infection refers to pyelonephritis, and lower urinary tract infection includes urethritis and cystitis. Pyelonephritis is divided into acute pyelonephritis and chronic pyelonephritis.

The reason for white urine is that in young people, due to the high level of androgen in the body, the secretion of prostate fluid is relatively large. Frequent prostate congestion can cause the gland duct to expand. During urination, due to the passive contraction of the prostate smooth muscle, it is easy to cause prostate fluid overflow, especially at night. Due to the continuous passive erection of the penis, the secretion of gland fluid is further stimulated, resulting in white urine when urinating in the morning. Or because the prostate is squeezed during defecation, intermittent white urine dripping may occur during urination.

However, when suffering from chronic prostatitis, white urine discharge is also likely to occur due to inflammatory stimulation. If the urethral white discharge is not effectively treated, it may develop into severe prostatitis and frequent nocturnal emission and premature spermatorrhea, causing psychological pressure on the patient. Secondly, excessive exercise, less water drinking or overeating of meat and vegetables will lead to excessive metabolism of oxalate and phosphate, resulting in salt crystal urine. When urinating, the urine will be turbid or white drops will appear. At this time, the patient will have symptoms such as lower abdominal distension and discomfort, sometimes radiating to bilateral groins, wet and sticky scrotum, etc.

Urinating white liquid may also be caused by sudden a lot of exercise instead of regular exercise, which leads to proteinuria. This is a stress response. At this time, you need to have a good rest, pay attention to the hygiene of your lower body, and change your underwear frequently. In this case, it is best to go to a large hospital for examination. Do not ignore it, so as not to delay the disease.
