I too have smelled this type of ammonia smell as well. I smelled it when both my parents had cancer and now I'm concerned for myself. I have been smelling this odor again on myself now for a couple months. I've expressed this to my doctors and they just shrug it off like it's impossible. I do believe
there is something to it .

@jordan2433, have you had any other symptoms? Do you continue to do screening tests for those cancer types that have screening, like colonoscopy and mammogram?

It's strange but since it was brought up I do remember having an odor under my breasts that I had never had before. I bet it started 6 months to a year ago. I was diagnosed in July with ILC. It was almost a vinegar type smell. I noticed it at first on the bottom of my bra where my breasts sweat. In all my years (66) I had never had such a smell. I had a lumpectomy Aug 21, 2023 and I no longer have the odor. I thought it was from sweating, but I have heavy breasts and always perspired in the under them in the warm weather. It seems very possible to me that there may be something to this.
