1. Dehydration 2. UTI 3. Pregnancy 4. Menopause 5. Kidney Stones 6. Kidney Disease 7. Liver Disease Hey I’ve been experiencing this ammonia smell in my urine for a couple years. My gynecologist never helps. I do have type 2 diabetes, and I don’t believe my ammonia smell is for any reason in your list except the Kidney Disease. Could high blood sugar cause this since the kidneys get rid of all toxins in the body? Maybe I need to go to a urologist, I also have bladder pressure pain. She always says I’m fine it’s from prolapse from having 2 kids. I’m still not convinced and feel like it’s not normal to have this smell.

I have had a pungent smell (which I can't pin down-it's sort of ammonia like but not purely) from my urine for the past year or so. I called my gyn as I couldn't get to her and asked her about it and she said (I am 71) that with age comes stronger smell. I am not dehydrated, pregnant (obv!) and my blood tests were basically normal that I recall. She told me to use borax suppositories which sometimes help, but they didn't help. So I'm sort of stuck with this and it's really aggravating.

I have had this problem since my last, 4th birth, almost 3 and half years ago. I guess it is because of dehydration due to breastfeeding? I am still breatsfeeding as my toddler cannot stop and I let her as she does not eat normal food enough. I hope once we stop breastfeeding for good, my odour problem will be gone. My sex life is nonexistent and I have depression because of the smell which is very pungent. My genitals smell just literally seconds after shower. Though I am not leaking an urine.

I got blood work, urine test and a swab and all negative. The urine is so potent and mix between ammonia and fishy smell. Never in my life have I had this and the doctor doesn’t think I need to see a gynaecologist. Just to drink water and put plain yogurt up there…. it’s a temporary fix and god forbid you miss one day, the smell comes back with a vengeance and I don’t see sticking yogurt up there for the rest of my life. I’m so frustrated:(

Try the boric acid vaginal suppositories that you insert they’re in the aisle with the women pads. It balances your pH with the boric acid insert them for a few days and the smell will go away.

Fishy smell could be Chlamydia but yogurt has good bacteria
@loseweightwithmealplanningАй бұрын
Fishy smell can also be cleanliness, the soap we use, not enough water, vaginal hygiene health overall. Too much sugar causing high discharge and candida. Dr is simply saying water will help keep you hydrated and yogurt for the healthy bacteria and overall diet changes. One other thing bot mentioned is the type of underwear we wear, can trap odours, and not wiping properly you can try using some specific non irritating vagisoap too

Hey doc! So the doctor i just saw last month told me my tests were "normal" and that it was a uti..but i felt unheard due to me having odor issues for YEARS..many trips back&fourth with different places...odors change but still there even AFTER showers..waiting to see if my application goes through to see a gynecologist specialist since my current insurance doesnt offer this..😢

Is there a correlation between a high ammonia concentration in urine and diabetes? Can a high concentration of ammonia be a side-effect of extremity swelling? Are there some medications that can cause high concentrations of ammonia in urine?

@gaugegirltraining Жыл бұрын
A popcorn smell or sweet-smelling urine is often an early indicator of untreated or undiagnosed diabetes. Diabetes affects your blood sugar levels and causes high ketone levels. The excess sugar and ketones make their way into your urine, resulting in that tell-tale popcorn smell. Get tested for diabetes 🙏
