Avatar f tn Hello Keepgoogling, I have worked around and with ammonia when I was younger while I was going to school. Ammonia has a very potent smell and can be quickly identified by most adults. I have never been told that I smell of ammonia. My wife has a very ultra sensitive nose and she would tell me if I smelled like ammonia. Right now I really don't think its ammonia but it could be a combination of different gases.
Avatar f tn Urinary bladder infection and kidney infections do produce strong smelling urine. Another reason is dehydration. Strong ammonia smell is due to protein breakdown. A routine urine examination along with a urine culture will be able to detect the problem. Drink plenty of fluids and water and see if that helps. Also if you are on crash diets etc then protein breakdown can cause an ammonia smell. Also diet rich in protein can be the cause.
Avatar f tn I have heard someone commit when I went to my daughters housewarming that they smelled ammonia. But the smell changes sometimes it’s a Smoke. Or fecal. Well for me anyway. But why would blood work continue to come back normal. Ammonia smell is usually related to the kidneys my test are all normal for kid disfunction.
Avatar m tn First of all, proteus can decompose urea to produce ammonia. We have all heard the smell of ammonia. The smell of urine in the toilet is the smell of ammonia. Therefore, the urine odor of PATM patients is produced by Proteus. In addition, proteus produces indole and hydrogen sulfide in our intestines. Indole is another name for faecal odor. The reason why feces stink is because of the high concentration of indole in feces. The fecal odor of PATM patients is produced by Proteus.
Avatar f tn Another symptom the article gave was an ammonia smell in the nose. Someone commented once that they smelled ammonia. I truly believe this is the cause of my problems. Another thing that surprised me is that I remember taking pepto bismuth and it would make some difference. I read that pepto bismuth, activated charcoal and gas x are all good . I think I will follow a low sulphur diet and see if it helps. Joint pain is also a symptom which I do have and doctors has said it is not arthritis.
Avatar m tn The smell that is coming from you is ammonia. Our body is releasing ammonia through our pours since our liver cannot flush it all out. Hence why people react with the itching, sneezing, and coughing.
Avatar f tn My 88 year old father has a very very strong ammonia smell to his urine. We know he has kidney stone (that can't be remove due to health issues). I hate to take him to the doctor's for nothing, but could this be an infection?
Avatar n tn The perm smell is usually related to sulfur or ammonia products. You might also be detecting sewer gas leak if you have a cracked drain pipe some where. It might also be perm chemicals wafting through the air. Try to narrow it down.
12773 tn?1328913186 but sent it off anyway, and will get back to me, one thing I didnt mention to her was the smell of Ammonia I had started smelling the day before. Its not on my skin, or anything, I do bathe everyday and use soap. But just in my nose. I have been a bit snuffy and hoarse the past few days, as a sick co worker refuses to cover her mouth. , but doc says there is alot of that going around.
Avatar m tn Ammonia odor can be associated with H. pylori. Ammonia can also be associated with urine and fecal material and not due to H. pylori.

680807 tn?1304496587 It seems that the smell of urine is a strong indicator for diabetics, the ammonia smell in a diabetic is usually due to dehydration, so yes not drinking enough can be the reason for your urine smelling like ammonia. There are other causes too, and i would hope that it wasn't just assumed to be because you have diabetes and that you have had tests to rule them out eg urinary track infection. This lists common causes http://www.buzzle.com/articles/ammonia-smelling-urine-in-women.

Avatar n tn I've noticed that from time to time, but becoming more frequent, my urine has a strong ammonia smell. The color is fairly normal - clear to golden - but the smell is there! I don't have pain or burning while urinating nor do I go to the toilet more often than usual. So what can be the cause? Thanks for any ideas.
Avatar f tn Old urine for me means ammonia, an ammonia smell which the body can release for several reasons. Maybe see a GP first and have some blood test done? And if you’re taking any fancy supplements try not to for a bit?

Avatar n tn I have searched online for this topic and have not found anything that pertains to it. My husband's semen smells so strong like ammonia, that I can smell it when he has an erection, fully clothed, when I am two feet away. It has been like this since we first started dating. He is only 24 years old. His semen also has chunks in it. Is this normal? He had a vasectomy so that we wouldn't have to worry about getting pregnant.
Avatar f tn I just want to share with everyone who is currently smell like **** or known as PATM (People Allergy To Me) I know some have suffered almost entire of their life. It make people stress since no treatment can cure.. those PATMers spent thousands of money to buy suppliment or probiotic on the belief that it can cure. yes it do but they did not treat the root of the problem. thats why it works for some people and not to the other.
Avatar m tn I tried it once, and I noticed a strong ammonia smell in my stool that got weaker and weaker over the course of a couple of days, so I think I might have had elevated levels of ammonia in my blood. It did nothing for my PATM, but it did make me feel a little better (clearer head).
