Anxiety

Answer 2

Normally, urine doesn't have much of a smell to it. If you are dehydrated and your urine becomes overly concentrated, it can have a stronger-than-usual scent. Vitamins and certain foods (asparagus, for example) can give urine an unusual smell. Infection can cause the urine to smell unpleasant.

Sometimes it can be difficult to tell where the smell is coming from: women think that their urine has an unpleasant odor, when actually the source is their vagina. The common vaginal infection trichomoniasis can cause a strong, foul, fishy smell. Another vaginal infection, gardnerella, can also cause an offensive odor. Both of these infections are easily treated with antibiotics. In most cases, a sexual partner of an infected woman will require treatment with antibiotics also, and condoms need to be used until the full schedule of antibiotics are finished.

Dehydration, or a UI (urinary infection).Drink plenty of water and get some cranberry juice.Cranberry juice as well as blue berries have certain enzymes that prevent bacteria from adhering to the urinary tract.
