What Causes Odd Smelling Urine?
Hello...I'm 38 weeks pregnant and I'm 20. In the past couple of days I have noticed that my urine smells really funny. It doesn't feel like a UTI and it doesn't hurt when I go to the bathroom. I was wondering what could be the problem. I have also been drinking plenty of fluids but I still can't figure this problem out.

Hello and thanks for your question.
It's my first priority to help you.
Well I would recommend to go for urinalysis for a precautionary measure as excessive glucose or ketones in urine can cause such smells.
Sometimes hCG in the urine can also cause weird smell to urine.
If you don't have any symptoms so there is nothing to worry.
If your urine is cloudy,frothy then see your doctor.
Hope this helps.
