Can Probiotics Cause Strong Odor In Urine?

Can a probiotic cause a change in overall scent of urine and discharge in women? There is no burning or irritation and no chance of STIs. I recently started taking a different probiotic, and around the same time started noticing a new scent. I noticed it due to it being very strong.

Hi,
The probiotic usually does not cause any odour. Just get your urine tested. Also the probiotic you are using may have some additional compounds added which may be the cause for the odour. Just check out.
