The smell of diabetic urine can vary – some patients say theirs has a sweet smell, while others say it smells like ammonia. Still others have no odor whatsoever. You are most likely to detect the odor of diabetic urine on your feet or on the toilet seat after using the toilet.
If you need more information on whether or not your urine contains sugar, you may use home urinalysis kits that detect sugar in urine at home over several hours, typically 10 hours. The glucose strips provide results for 400 drops of blood or less on site without mixing with other fluids first.
