Stringy particles in urine,acidic smell
I' m on the pill (21 years old) and skipped my period twice in a row by not taking the last week of pills, due to inconvenience. Today I noticed my urine was bright yellow, had stringy greenish particles in it and smelled very funny, almost acidic. I have no pain or burning sensation. Have been under alot of stress lately. Any ideas of what the cause of this may be?

It could be something you ate. If it persists a bladder infection is a possibility.
