Yellow urine in men may be caused by insufficient water intake or excessive sweating. For example, on hot days when sweating is increased and fluid intake is low, urine may become yellow. Additionally, chronic prostatitis could be a contributing factor, as well as an unbalanced diet that increases organic substances in the urine, which requires further evaluation including urinalysis. Urethritis can also cause this symptom, often accompanied by urethral pain, redness, and swelling at the urethral opening, potentially harming health.
