Hi,

Are you taking any medications lately?

Any change in your diet ?

Urine odor may be altered by medications , the presence of infection and sometimes even diet ( certain ingredients in some beverages). Have you any of these?

I too have this problem. I take no meds (not even vitamens, OTC meds, etc) I have no clue nor does my PCP, GYNO, or Urologist. No diet changes.

I have a sulfur odor emitting from my pores which (naturally) is considerably worse when I sweat, but my urine doesn't have any noticeably unusual odor. This odor is so strong that I am barely able to get it out of my sheets! I have also developed nerve tremors which feel as though my entire body has been plugged into a low voltage electrical socket. Does any one know a cause for either of these problems and/or if they could be related? I am also perimenopausal. Could that play a roll here?
