Your Body Is Speaking

Your kidneys filter. Day and night. They sort what may stay from what must go — waste products, excess fluid, everything the body no longer needs. When this process works, you notice nothing. When it stalls, you notice everything.

Oliguria means: your body is excreting less urine than usual — less than 500 milliliters per day. Medically, this can indicate kidney problems, fluid deficiency, or serious organ dysfunction. That is why, before we go further, one clear sentence belongs here: have this medically investigated. Immediately. Oliguria is not a harmless signal — it can be an urgent one.
