This is Why you have Smelly Pee

So many things about us have a scent, be it our sweat, hair, mouth, or freaking feet. And even if it smells bad, that doesn't necessarily trigger cause for concern. Fresh urine output usually smells mild, but various factors can cause it to smell differently than usual. Urine is mainly made of water. Body wastes are responsible for the difference in urine appearance and smell. As such, the look and smell of urine can give doctors a lot of information about someone's health.

The 5 causes of sweet-smelling urine:

1. UTI: The urethra is the tube that carries urine from your bladder to the outside of your body. The female anatomy makes. A strong- or sweet-smelling urine is one of the first signs of a UTI. Other symptoms include an ongoing urge to urinate and a burning sensation when you urinate. You can diagnose and confirm a UTI using the Neodocs UTI kit.
2. Diabetes: Increased glucose spike in the blood called Hyperglycaemeia, occurs when your blood sugar levels are abnormally high. Those with uncontrolled diabetes may notice that their urine smells sweet or fruity. The body is disposing of glucose through your urine in an effort to get rid of excess blood sugar.
3. Diabetic ketoacidosis: Mismanaged diabetes can result in Diabetic KetoAcidosis (DKA) in the long - run. So, what is Ketoacidosis? During DKA, the body burns fat for energy because there isn't enough glucose. The burning of fat releases ketones, which build up in the blood and make it acidic.
4. A condition causes your breath to smell sweet or musty. Foetor hepaticus is known as "the breath of the dead." It most commonly affects the breath, but it can also affect the urine. Liver disease is the cause of the condition.
5. Maple syrup urine disease: A rare genetic disorder, it inhibits the body's ability to break down amino acids, which are essential to maintaining bodily functions. Using urinalysis, genetic testing, and newborn screening methods, the disease is diagnosed in infancy. Common symptoms are:
   • urine that smells sweet, like caramel or maple syrup
   • poor feeding
   • seizures
   • delayed development
