Hi

Mine only smells if I have a urine infection, you might need to see your GP. Love and hugs Lynne xxxx

Hi Faithfull,

I know you have been told this before but any ammonia smell is bad. Speak with your doctor again.

How are you otherwise?

Hello Faithfull, I've had all sorts of problems such as urine infections, smells, itchiness etc and I suppose as a 71 year old woman it's to be expected. I know this sounds really daft, but when I started getting a smelly discharge I didn't want to go back to the doctor as the last time I had this problem the sample I gave came back as negative. To cut a long story short, I started to have hot drinks with a teaspoon of Marmite twice a day for a few days and found to my amazement that my discharge and smell had completely gone and if it comes back, even slightly, I drink one or 2 mugs a day of the above for a couple of days and I'm back to normal. Please let me know if this works for you.

I have that problem too, it seems to come and go, but every week there are days where it is very strong smell. I told my doctor about it and she said, “ of that doesn’t mean anything” I don’t believe that myself. Trying to figure out what to do next. I have severe fatty liver, that is enlarged to 16.6 cm that’s quite large i think for a woman. It’s nice to know I am not the only one dealing with this embarrassing symptom. I wish I had an answer for you, I am trying to find one myself.
