My urine turned pink and I've already menstruated, is this normal?

Look, if you've already menstruated and saw a bit of pink in your urine, it's very likely just a little bit of period blood mixing with your urine, like, no need to worry. It happens that the urethra (where urine comes out) and the vagina (where blood comes out) are very close, so it's super normal. I swear! Like, it's just a little bit of leftover blood.

This can happen more at the beginning or end of your period, when the flow is lighter. But if the pink color in your urine continues even after your period ends, or if you feel any pain, burning when you pee, or a different smell, then it's good to talk to a trusted adult. It could just be a pesky little infection that's easy to resolve with a doctor.
