What Causes Yellow Urine With Strong Odor?

At my year physical last fall I told my doctor I was feeling very fatigued. My blood work came back saying my Testosterone levels were very low. My doctor put me on Testosterone shots and pretty soon my sweat would have an odd odor. I have not continued the shots after my levels came up to normal but now my urine is very yellow and has a strong odor. Don t know if there is any connection? Can those urine symtoms be indicative of Diabetes? Am I just dehydrated though I drink a good bit of water daily?

Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.

Yes, this cant indicate just one disorder since there could be a number of causes for foul smelling urine. Most common includes urinary tract infection, metabolic abnormality & bladder infection. I would suggest you to get urine complete examination & culture done to see if there is any abnormality. Meanwhile following home remedies may help to improve the condition:
- Drink plenty of water if you are dehydrated,
- Cranberry juice is also an effective home remedy for foul urine odor. It is more beneficial to prepare a fresh cranberry juice instead of drinking a canned one.
- Lemon juice and barley water also help to relieve you of foul smelling urine.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health.
