Can anemia affect urine

Yes, anemia can affect urine indirectly. Certain types of anemia, particularly hemolytic anemia, can lead to the presence of hemoglobin in the urine, which may cause it to appear darker or have a reddish tint. Additionally, anemia can result in changes in kidney function, potentially affecting urine production and concentration. However, the direct effects of anemia on urine composition are generally less pronounced than those caused by other underlying conditions.
