What Causes Unusual Strong Body Odor?

Ok I recently have noticed my body smells different, in the past few day increased tremendously to a metsly, sulfur smell especially my head. If I scratch my head and smell my hands it s overwhelming to me. No one else seems to notice this smell but I know myself and know this is not my normal smell. I have not been doing or eating anything out of the normal.

tricky. Certainly changes in stress, hormone level, puberty, menstrual cycle will change odor. Most likely though is food. Avoiding foods with odors such as garlic will likely change things.
