A member asked:
What can be done about smelly poop after bypass surgery? will this always be a problem?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: The odor of your bowel movements may change when the transit time of food changes, and that is normal. Dietary changes also can have a big effect - High protein and high meat diets may have greater odor than vegetarian or lower protein diets.
