Urination patterns can provide essential clues about kidney function. Changes in frequency, color, or consistency of urine may signal a problem with your kidneys. Some common changes include:

  • Increased urination frequency, especially at night
  • Decreased urine output
  • Dark or tea-colored urine
  • Foamy or bubbly urine
  • A strong odor in the urine
  • A burning sensation or pain during urination

These changes can be indicative of various issues, such as urinary tract infections, kidney stones, or kidney disease. If you notice any persistent changes in your urination patterns, it’s crucial to consult a healthcare professional for a proper assessment. (3)
