I Have Been Having Rubber/latex Smelling Body Odor

For the past few months I ve been having at times a very strong body odor, like rubber. Even my kids can smell it, when they get into the car with me after school. When I sniff my forearm I can smell also, even stronger. So I know for sure it s a body odor I m emitting, what can this be?
