Why Am I Passing Foul Smelling Gases?

Hi, my name is nk,e and I am 46 years healthy lady for my whole life. For 3 years I'm taking syntroid for hypothyroid. For a year the doctor said I have reflux and I'm taking omeprazole once a day. And for couple months a notice that I have passing involuntary smelling gases that are making me crazy. Before that I swear I was so proud the my poop or gas wasn't smell bad at all. What's happening to me??

Hi...

Welcome to healthcare magic.

As per your complain you have problem of gas problem that may be because of any food intolerance or intestinal infection or other condition.

More fatty food consuption and fast eating of food may cause gas problem.
Lactose intolerance lead to abdominal bloting problem after taking dairy products.
If this type of symptoms more than two months than think about irritable bowel syndrom.
Intestinal infection also cause abdominal gas problem.
Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.
Abdominal ultra sonography is helpful for diagnosis.
Detail history and investigation give exact idea about problems.

I hope my guidance helpful to you..
Take care.
Thank you.
