Strong smelling urine

Strong smelling urine

Does strong smelling urine has anything to do with hiv infection? I have this for like many months already, I mean my urine smell incredibly strong most of the time. I have heard it could be something to do with an infection. Just wonder if anyone has heard anything of it? (I also have swollen nodes, painless sores on back of throat, white hairy tongue etc)

Never heard of that before, but a change in diet can do this. What was your exposure if you don't mind me asking?

nude body massage, frottage(genitals to genitals), wank job etc. Yeah I know it sounds like no risk, but months after and still with all these symptoms, I suspect I might have accidentially "dip in" a little bit (say less than 1cm) during frottage/right after ejaculation without noticing at that time.

Even if you "dipped In" your risk would be low. A one time exposure like this is unlikely to result in an HIV infection but it does not make it impossible. Remember to ignore any symptoms because EVERY symptom that HIV causes is also caused by hundreds of other things way way way more common than HIV. A 3 month test will be considered conclusive, so if it has been that long you could have a rapid test and the worries will be over in 20 minutes or so. Hope this has helped.

Thanks for your reply. Well I know symptoms is not always reliable, but I also know there aren't hundreds of other things that could have cause my symptoms (persistant generalise swollen nodes, hairy tongue etc for many months). I will get a test soon and I'll let you all know.

Just test now with a rapid antibody test and you worries will be over in about 20 minutes...3 months is conclusive, so you are way past that. You will be ok.

Teak what do you think of my situation? Is strong smelling urine related to hiv or other std?

No it's not related to HIV or other STDs.
