Strong antiseptic smell In urine during UTI

Have you not been to a doctor or clinic yet? Odor change is often a sign of something mild that can get worse. If it's just a urine smell only much stronger, water increase may take care of it. It doesn't matter if you like water or not, just do it. Think of it as medicine. And I'd say 8 6oz. glasses a day to start with. Maybe you'd take it better if using ice water, or a straw. Not a bottle, takes longer. Good luck with this simple fix.

I feel like I’m not heard by my Dr. She ignores my questions.

@mesusan. than it's time to get a different doctor who will listen and not ignore you. i know. probably easier said than done. but for your own health and mind. you gotta do it. danny5

.... and here I am AGAIN! Hi @danny59 and @kidneybean1 - Thank you for replying!!!!
So .... Yes, I do have a GREAT urologist now; but she doesn't know WHY I have this "smell".
In honesty, I just mentioned it once to her, 3 days ago. She interpreted as a potential sign of an infection and told me to drink plenty of water. I was STILL on antibiotics because of a new UTI, and had just taken the last pill! Yes, I am drinking plenty of water. My urine is almost water color! BUT the smell is THERE! And I have to tell you, my undies reek of it too! Washing and changing doesn't affect it!

@kidneybean1, the smell is NOT anything like ammonia. It is a "medicinal" type of smell, sort of like an antiseptic used in hospitals. Does it make any sense to you? I had my husband smell it. He couldn't decipher it either. We both think it is a "familiar" smell; something we have smelled before (aside from my urine!!). It was only yesterday afternoon that it came to me: It smells like one of the antiseptics used in hospitals. He agreed!!!
This is when I sent in my question .... I've been searching for an explanation for a while now, but I haven't found any information about THIS particular type of smell.
I have seen information about the smells of Ammonia, Sulphur, Rotten Eggs, Rotten Meat, Maple syrup, Popcorn, Sweet, Fishy, and/or various foul odors. None of these seem to define the odor I smell.

Thanks for your help!!!
Hugs!
