Is it possible to be dehydrated without dark urine?

Posted , 3 users are following.

I feel like I'm dehydrated (dry mouth, dry eyes, burning when urinating), but my urine isn't dark or clouded. Could I still be dehydrated if my urine color is normal? I can't find answers anywhere...

    It all depends how much and how often you are drinking and if you have any underlying medical conditions

    You could have some form of infection, make an appointment to see your GP

    Could even be systemic

    If you have had this for some time then you do need to see a doctor for a proper diagnosis . There is a condition called Sjogrens syndrome which has symptoms as you have described. Try Googling the condition.

    Burning on urination is usually a sign of an infection. Do see a doctor to get your urine tested.
