Urine odor: Most commonly the odor of the urine is related to what you have eaten, or if you have certain illnesses to the metabolic by-products of that disease. To learn what is in your urine you need to take a specimen to your doctor or to a laboratory and have it examined professionally. Good luck.

My pee has been smelling like sulfur, I got blood work done and my thyroid level was super high. I drink plenty of water my urine is almost clear. Sometimes the smell will go away, but come back?

Would not drinking enough water cause blood in your urine. Seems like when i start drinking more water , it clears up.
