What Causes Unusual Sweat Smell In A Lactating Mother?

I am a 35 year old mother who is breastfeeding. I recently started to notice that at times my sweat smells like ammonia. I stay hydrated throughout the day and night. I eat carbohydrates with each of my meals, and more often than not, my in-between snacks are carbohydrates not protein. I am a Hep C carrier, and kidney failure runs in the paternal side of my family.

Hi,

By your history and description possibility of dental infection is more likely.
So better to consult the dentist and get done a detailed examination of the oral cavity.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
