Let’s be clear first and foremost: poo doesn’t smell like roses, and it never will.
But there are reasons to be more aware if your stool smells really bad.
It may indicate disease
This is what the American writes Journal of Women’s Health. The Swedes also discussed the issue Express.
Excessive foul odor may indicate that something is wrong with your body. It’s completely normal for him to smell really bad once in a while.
Before you run to the nearest emergency room, you should consider your diet, medications, and risk of developing enteritis or bleeding, gastroenterologist Tamika Jaswani tells Health Magazine.
Got a shock bill – warn others
Only when this happens regularly should you investigate closely.
In this case, three experts list diseases and conditions that can cause smelly stools.
1. You are taking antibiotics
If you are taking antibiotics, this may affect the bacterial flora in the stomach. This, in turn, can lead to changes in your stool — including the smell. Gastroenterologist Anikwa Cohen tells Women’s Journal.
2. You have an infection in your body
Bacterial, viral, or parasitic infections can also affect the bacteria in the stomach. Not only can they cause diarrhea, but they can also affect the exhaust gases in the stool and create an unpleasant odor, says Sidhsan Navabi of Rutgers New Jersey College of Medicine.
3. You have a food intolerance
According to gastroenterologist Marvin Singh, food intolerances or allergies mean that your body is unable to break down all of the ingredients. When bacteria try to break down food, they release gases. This gas, along with undigested food, can create an unpleasant odor.
It can also lead to stomach cramps and bleeding in some cases.
4. You have celiac disease
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease that affects the small intestine, he writes pocket doctor. Those who suffer from celiac disease cannot eat foods that contain gluten as this leads to inflammation of the intestines.

According to Navabi, this can damage the intestinal mucosa, which in turn can make it difficult to absorb nutrients.
The result is symptoms like diarrhoea, constipation, flatulence, abdominal pain — and greasy, foul-smelling stools.
5. You have inflammatory bowel disease
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is inflammation of the intestines. Commonly used as a collective term for bowel disease, Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Major medical encyclopedias.
Both conditions can lead to strong-smelling stools, Navabi says.
6. Your body is not absorbing nutrients
According to Aniqa Kohen, there are a number of conditions that can cause the body not to absorb nutrients properly. It highlights infections, gluten sensitivity, enteritis, and several syndromes such as:
– Every time there is chronic inflammation in the intestine that can alter the bacterial balance. This can lead to increased gas in the stool. Then she explains that it will stink even more.
7. You have Clostridium difficile (C. diff).
Intestinal infection caused by Clostridioides difficile bacteria is a diarrheal disease that can occur after the use of antibiotics. Norwegian Health Informatics.
The infection often affects the elderly, the sick and the weak. Clostridium bacteria can survive for a long time on objects, and are spread by contact infection.
They counted when they got the bill
Besides foul-smelling stools, these symptoms are also common:
Symptoms are frequent, soft stools, sometimes with blood or mucus. Diarrhea varies from a few bouts of loose stools to large bloody stools accompanied by fever, stomach cramps, and a weak general condition, the website writes.
8. You have cancer
This is a rare cause, but doctors still shed light on it.
Changes in the gut microbiome in the case of advanced bowel cancer or polyps can alter the composition of gas in our stools, says Jaswani.
In other words, this means that you will smell an unpleasant, unnatural smell from the bowl.
Colorectal cancer, also known as colorectal cancer, is one of the most common types of cancer in the Western world. But writes that this condition is rare among those under the age of 40 pocket doctor.
Symptoms are often not entirely specific, and can resemble symptoms seen in many other benign conditions affecting the digestive system, they wrote.
If you have symptoms such as blood or mucus in your stool, frequent abdominal pain, feel you cannot empty yourself or have other changes in your stool pattern, you should see a doctor.
One should also be aware of other symptoms such as weight loss, night sweats, or a nonspecific feeling of illness over time, the site writes.
9. You have gastrointestinal bleeding
Jaswani explains that there is a big difference between blood that you might smell in your gut and blood that has been digested.
If your stools are black, sticky, or look like kelp, it could mean that you have bleeding in your stomach and intestines.
The blood coming from the upper intestinal tract mixes with digestive enzymes in the stomach and is changed by stomach bacteria. It creates a scent, al-Jazwani explains.
I tracked the stroller – and then came the shock
If you’re healthy as a fish, but still have foul-smelling stools, you may be able to take some measures with your diet to improve your situation — and those you live with.
Experts advise eating less foods such as onions, garlic, meat, eggs, broccoli, cauliflower or asparagus. You may also want to drink more water or take probiotics as a supplement.
