Pinkish Tinge In The Urine. Unprotected Sex. Have To Take Depo Provera. History Of Kidney And Urinary Bladder Problems. Sign Of Pregnancy Or UTI?

Posted on Sun, 24 Jun 2012

Question: I have a pink tinge in the colour of my urine. What do you believe it is?
I have a history of kidney and bladder problems. I am due my depo provera soon, they've had to do a sample pregnancy test at the doctors as I missed it last week. I did have unprotected sex on the week I missed my depo, believing it would still be okay. I'm waiting for the results. I'm unsure as to if it is a UTI or sign of pregnancy?

Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

The pinkish tinge in your urine can be due to:
a. Passing extremely concentrated urine ( which occurs in dehydration)
b. A urinary tract infection
c. Renal stones
d. Side effect of a medication

A pinkish tinge in the urine is not a sign of pregnancy. In pregnancy, women usually complain of frequency of urine.

I hope I have answered your query. Please accept my answer if you have no further query
