Purple urine can occur due to a condition called porphyria, which affects the production of heme in the body, leading to the excretion of porphyrins that can give urine a purple hue. It may also result from certain foods, medications, or dyes. Additionally, a rare condition known as purple urine bag syndrome can occur in patients with catheters due to bacterial infections that produce specific pigments. If you notice purple urine, it's advisable to consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation.
