Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM. My name is Dr Muhammad Ali Rauf & i will look into your problem.
I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way. Food can cause a change in the consistency and color of your urine, although they are not the usual cause of cloudy urine. There are a number of causes for cloudy urine. Most common include:
- Urinary tract infection
- Microscopic blood
- Kidney stones
- Sperm or vaginal discharge can mix with urine and give it a cloudy appearance
I would suggest you to once get urine complete examination done to confirm if everything is normal or not.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!

Hello Dr XXXXXXX XXXXXXX Rauf,
Thank you for your response. I have done one urine examination about one year ago, do you think it is outdated ? (the results came back normal). In any case I will have one done soon. In addition my urine clears up immediately after the cloudy one. I forgot to mention that I take Propranolol 80mg every day; could that be the cause ?
