Can you tell me reasons why i smell like ammonia or kinda like pee recently?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Here are some ...: What you smell is normally expected and ok as long as urinalysis from properly collected urine specimen is normal. Remember urine has its unique aroma and soon after exposing to air or clothes, oxidation process and bacterial interaction take place leading to further change in its color and odor - the worse, the longer. So, keeping up topical hygiene with complete urine drainage and clothe change
