What causes yellow urine

Patient's question:

Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Recently, I've always felt that my urine is yellow, but I don't have a sense of urgency or frequent urination. It just feels very yellow and not very smooth. What could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

It may be due to drinking too little water or having a relatively strong internal heat, so pay attention to drinking more water. Additionally, yellow urine is common for normal middle-aged and young men under conditions such as prolonged sitting or standing, staying up late, overexertion, spicy food, alcohol, and irregular sexual activity—it is not necessarily a disease. Excluding these factors, it could also be jaundice caused by hepatitis B.
