Hello, I wouldnt usually go on here but not sure who to ask, recently when I urinate it smells kinda like mini cheddar and I don't know why, I don't have any other signs of a UTI so not sure. I have googled to no avail and if it helps I'm on the implant for the past year, it also kinda smells like fake tan but not like urine/ 'fish' ect help

How much water have you been drinking? What colour is the urine?

DamnYankee · 25/05/2020 00:58

Dehydrated, likely. I'm a habitual offender.

Aclh13 · 25/05/2020 00:59

Very light almost like water and drinking a lot more in this heat, I wondered if pregnant but not like before so thought noo definitely not

Before noticing this though I've had three dreams about having a baby girl in the last 2 weeks

If I were you I’d probably take a course of cystitis treatment from a supermarket. I’ve had similar before and it won’t do you any harm if it turns out it’s not cystitis. Then if that doesn’t work and you’re still concerned, go to the doctor

Could be pregnant! You never know unless you test!

Aclh13 · 25/05/2020 01:08

That's the thing my doctor isn't seeing anyone and idk if I'm able to call like that, I've been tempted to take pregnancy but if I was I would be around 8-12 weeks by now as haven't had sex since just after lockdown. Also I had spotting of dark blood a few weeks bad but put it down to implant

When was your last period?

JasHarts · 25/05/2020 01:11

Ah sorry just seen you’re on the implant

JasHarts · 25/05/2020 01:12

Still possible though! Unlikely but possible. I’d get a test if I were you then you know for sure

Ukelele3 · 25/05/2020 01:20

Try D-mannose. A natural sugar that’s great for UTI (can be found on amazon)

Aclh13 · 25/05/2020 01:20

As a disclosure I got pregnant twice in one year first time Ab second time Mc of twins at 14 weeks both times I was on different contraception and both failed I have been on implant straight away after since then

I’m sorry to hear you’ve had a tough time of it OP Flowers definitely buy a test

Aclh13 · 25/05/2020 01:28

@Thecruxxofitis I definitely will tomorow I think what's put me off is that unfortunately discretion isn't entirely an option rn

While you’re at the shop I agree with a PP about getting some cranberry sachets just in case you’re not pregnant

StinkyWizzleteets · 25/05/2020 01:31

Hormonal fluctuations can make your per change smells. Not necessarily pregnancy related but could be cycle related. My pee smells of sugar puffs at ovulation.
Mmmm sugar puffs

Aclh13 · 25/05/2020 01:36

I haven't had that since my implant but worth a look into, an even stranger symptom has been almost non existent asthma after being a vulnerable asthmatic in and out of hospital for years and years. My lungs and heart are better than ever which is just odd

Worth checking it out but mine is different according to time of day, month, what ive drank and also just randomly

HappydaysArehere · 25/05/2020 02:10

I had the same. Really unpleasant smell. Went to the doctors with ba specimen. The tester came out clear. However, she suggested I.might like to go to the local bowel and bladder clinic. The appointment was about six weeks later while this smell persisted and really worried me. Gave the nurse there another sample and she said it was a terrible infection. Got antibiotics and within a few hours the smell had gone.
