Right off the bat you should try drinking more water, at least 6 or 7 cups a day. See how that changes things, and if the problem continues see a doctor. Yiour sence of smell is a God giving warning system, you know wehnthings are wrong. https://www.unitypoint.org/news-and-articles/the-causes-of-foul-smelling-urine-unitypoint-health

Urine smell is often affected by what we consume and dehydration. Drink plenty of water and watch out for asparagus, onion, garlic and the like. UTI has other symptoms with it too. Also not every symptom requires testing. Excessive tsting of minor symptoms is what is causing the healthcare system to become so expensive
