Urine odor?!


Question: I have notice lately that when I urinate, there is an increased odor/ammonia coming from my urine, while I urinate and afterwards. My boyfriend has also noticed this. He states that after I go to the bathroom, if he walks into the bathroom after I left it, he says that he can smell it also. This happens in whatever toilet I use. What could be the cause of this?

You are probably not getting enough water/fluid and your urine is becoming concentrated. This can happen if you cut back drinking water or other fluids, or exercise a lot and not replenish yourself with water and other fluids.

Maybe you have been holding it in for too long? You should try going more often.

I'm not sure, sorry.

Drinking heavily? Eating a lot of broccoli? Too much meat in your diet perhaps?

You need to drink more water.Water will dilute the ammonia smell we all have to our urine.

everyone goes through this at one point or another. There is actually ammonia in our urine! ( freaky huh?) the trick is to drink lots and lots of water. urine has a stronger scent when you arent hydrated enough. but it is normal and nothing is wrong with you!

drink more water...you have concentrated urine...dilute it by drinking water and nothing else. Your pee will become more clear and less smelly.

you may not be drinking enough water. when enough water is not in your system urine becomes dark yellow and starts to smell. you might want to get it tchecked out by a doctor because it could be a sign on an STD. but probably not , its prob. just the water thing

drink lots of water

Eating these things cause urine odor to be strong:
Garlic
Onlions
Brocolli
and especially Asparagus
Plus you aren't getting enough water to flush your system out.

drink more water!!!
