Answer #1

Hi Nessa,

 I too have the problem of urine scent from time to time, it is stronger if I do not drink 8 8 oz bottles of water. Now I have a condition of kidney stones and that is where it started, I was not aware of this for several years after I stopped drinking alcoholic beverages, I had 2 surgeries last year and I may be going again soon, I notice the pain more and more and I hope you do not end up like this too. My advice to you is to drink more water, stay completely away from alcoholic beverages, caffinated drinks, and chocolate, yes I said chocolate, unfortunately until you know for sure, it is a good idea. See your doctor soon and just remember they keep doctor patient confidentiality. Good luck to you, I wish you all the best.
Answer #2

you need to drink lot of Craneberry juice and buy AZO standard medicine.

Answer #3

sexybeastoftheeast, I’d be uncomfortable if I were in her position. Your “advice” seems, to me, totally unrelated to the girls problem.

Nessa, I advise you to visit your GP, and perhaps it would be beneficial for you to bring a recent sample of your urine for him/her to examine. There are many possible causes of this smell (eg; have you been on the Atkins diet?), but your doctor will be able to give you a far better answer to you question than we at FunAdvice will.

I hope everything works out well.

Answer #4

On funguy’s lst post, I’d suggest avoiding the Gatorade, due to the danger of harming your teeth. Other than that, I’d follow his advice, but do visit your GP soon, just to be certain.

Answer #5

This could be merely a food thing. Certain iron-rich foods like asparagus tend to make the urine smell more potent. Try doing a flush by drinking a lot of gatorade, cranberry juice, and water. Don’t eat until you have to urinate.

Also, drinking less water can make the urine darker and more concentrated in smell. Make sure you are getting enough water throughout the day.
