My wife’s urine smells

When my wife urinates, the odour is very offensive. What is the cause? Is it an infection?

It is important to first confirm from your wife if she is on any special medications or diet because some drugs and food items can produce some pungent smell in the Urine. If she is not, then it will be necessary to send a sample of her Urine to the Laboratory for investigations as to the cause of her odorous urine which could range from infection to other underlying ailments.
