Re: What is this smell from that started when i got constipated!

could you have a parasite in your intestines, might be worth getting a test.

You may have a gut dysbiosis and your gut bacteria is messed up due to constipation and the use of laxatives, and Antibiotics ..

I agree with the other post that you should change your diet and get rid of sugar, lactose, gluten and grains. Check out the specific carbohydrate diet, or the fodmaps diet.

You could also try drinking green juices each day, they help to build your gut bacteria up.

Also taking laxatives is not a good idea, the best natural laxative is Prune juice. Eat prunes and take a glass of prune juice in the morning and one in before bedtime, not big glasses as you do not want to get diarrhoea.

Another good food is porridge that helps to ease constipation and build up your gut bacteria as well.

Also drink plenty of water, and hopefully when your constipation stops and your gut bacteria improves the odour will go away.

One other possibility is that you have a form of leaky gas, whereby your sphincter muscle does not close properly and air and odour get out, but first you would be better trying the diet and prune juice first. If this doesn't work then get checked for the weak sphincter muscle.

Good luck
