White Urine, Any Advice Appreciated. Posted: 06-08-05 00:50am
Occasionally when i'm urinating, at some
point during the stream it will turn
cloudy and somewhat white.. It is never
like this for the whole stream, and it
does not happen every time I urinate...
In fact there are times where it doesnt
happen for days, sometimes weeks... I
dont think it is semen because I do
ejactulate pretty regularly... It does
not burn or cause pain either, I was just
wondering if this is anything I should be
concerned about? Maybe something life
threatening that I need to have checked
immediatly? ; ; any feedback is
appreciated. Thank you.

This happened with my 5 year old son. I
took him to the doctors immediately!! But
there was no reason to worry. White or
cloudy urine is most commonly a result of
phosphaturia (hope I spelled it right!!).
This is a benign condition in which excess
amorphous phosphate crystals form in
urine. Phosphaturia is usually
intermittent, occurring following a meal
or after ingesting a large quantity of
milk. Adding a drop of acetic acid to the
urine sample will result in immediate
clearing of the urine. White urine is
sometimes due to pyuria (abundant white
blood cells) in association with an
infection of the urinary tract. White
cloudy urine can rarely be due to chyluria
(lymph fluid), resulting from a
communication with between the lymphatic
system and the urinary tract. Hope this
helps :)

Chrono114, I am having the same problem!
Not all the time, mostly in the morning
around 10ish! Sometimes it is really
noticable while urinating! Comes, and
goes while urinating, but when it comes
you can see it!
Sometimes at the very end it is really
white, not a gist of yellow... I myself
am kinda worried! What could this be?
It has been happening on and off for a few
weeks now, and havent went to see a doctor
about it!
I thought it would go away!
See: freckles21601, said after ingesting a
large quantity of milk! Well I do drink
mil in the morning "every
morning"........
So what do you think I should do? See a
doctor? Or let it go...? Doesn't sound
like a good idea...
Any news on you?

Hey all, sorry I havent checked this post
in awhile ^^ thanks for all the feedback
so far. It had stopped happening to
me for a good week, and sure enough once I
stop worrying its back again, and im still
as clueless as I was before ; ;
there's no pain or discomfort of any kind
which I assume is a good thing.. My
biggest fear though, is that this is just
the start of something serious, possibly
fatal. I'm only 19 and ever since
about 2 years ago i've also been a pretty
bad hypocondriac. So when things like
this happen I make them really bad, heh
:\
when I first noticed it, I did go to the
doctor and I had blood work and a urine
sample takin. Both came back fine.
I think the main thing thats causing this
though is my inactive lifestyle. For
the last 2 years or so (since I started
being paranoid) I havent really gone out
or done as much as I used to. I used
to be insanely active and out all hours of
the night. Do you think maybe that
could be it? Are you inactive as well
mheinjr?
Edit: sorry I neglected to answer ur
question mhein, I would suggest you go
see a doctor just to make sure its nothing
serious. I think a urologist would be
best, I think I am going to see one as
well.
Also, just to get these diseases off my
mind, can someone please just tell me if
this sounds like prostate cancer or some
kind of kidney problem? ; ;

Well, I eat cerial every morning! And
after the post of drinking alot of milk I
have stopped eating cerial! Reason being
is because really the only time it happens
is after I eat cerial probubly 2 hours
later at like 10:00! So I am going to
try this and see what hapens!
I am a active person! Work 40+ hours a
week, and go out with friends to clubs
etc.... So I don't think that is the
problem!

I have the same problem. I live a active
life. The white stuff in my urine was
really thick and just sat it the water. It
somewhat looks like seman but i dont see
how it could be, i ejaculate regularly. It
just started today and it was only a
little bit once. It has me really worried
that it is a more serious problem. I am
only 17 so i dont see it being prostate
cancer.

i used to have white cloudy urine although
with other symptoms i got it checked out
and it was a u.t.i , i would suggest the
best option is to talk to your doctor and
tell him whats going wrong for a
professional answer.
