10 Cholestasis Symptoms
Symptom #2: Dark Urine
Changes to urine color are noted in people who have been struggling with cholestasis for some time. This is because the excess bilirubin that builds up in the liver needs to be excreted by the kidneys. In doing this, the bilirubin (which is a pigment that’s found in the liver) darkens the urine.
If you are experiencing dark urine and not experiencing any other symptoms on this list, then it’s possible that you might just be dehydrated. Try consuming a few extra glasses of water on a daily basis. If the symptoms don’t improve, then you may be struggling with a more serious condition like cholestasis.
