Sweet Smell & Medication Side Effects: Provera, Clomid & Allergies
QuestionHi, my name is amanda and I'm 25 years old. I recently started taking provera and clomid due to infertility. I also take allegra D for allergies and congestion. About a month ago, I started noticing a particular smell, very sweet and strong, it is almost constant...sometimes I can't perceive any other smell. Nobody else notices it. I also suffer from cryptic tonsils and causes me to have annoying bad breath and taste. No history of head injuries. Can any of the medications cause the olfactory symptom??? I had just completed taking clomid 50mg and I'm currently taking provera x10days since I didn't get pregnant.
AnswerI don't see anything in the literature about these drugs causing those symptoms...... I am not sure what this could be from..... if it were pungent or anything else but sweet, I would blame the tonsils for it..... and it still might be that, but I would try over the counter zinc supplement pills... and have your doctor look into cat scan of your sinus' looking for a low grade sinus infection........
