What Colour should urine be in morning?
Morning is when your urine will be most concentrated. So, if your morning urine is a pale, straw color, you’re probably well hydrated and healthy. At bedtime, it should look as clear as water or at least pale yellow. If it doesn’t, you may need to boost your fluid intake.
Can I collect morning urine to test later?
Your doctor or another healthcare professional should give you a container and explain how you should collect the urine sample. You can collect a urine sample at any time of day, unless your GP or practice nurse advises you otherwise.
How can I get early morning urine?
Start collecting from the first drop of urine. Collect the urine into the container and fill about 3/4 of the container. Finish urinating into the toilet. Close the container containing the sample tightly with the cap. Transfer the urine from the container into the test tube within 15 minutes of giving the sample.
Should a urine sample be taken first thing in the morning?
Generally, it doesn’t matter what time of day you collect a urine sample, but there are occasional exceptions. Your doctor may, for example, request a first morning sample because the urine is more concentrated and therefore it is more likely to show up any abnormalities.
