Why does my poop smell like weed?
I know this sounds really ridiculous but when I was pooping earlier, it had a really strong smell that smelled like weed and I have no idea why- I’ve never smoked weed or experimented with it in my life- I hate drug culture personally (the only reason I know what it smells like is because certain people in my life have used it before) so I wonder why that odor has gotten to my poop, despite me having never used marijuana of any kind before. I’m a 17 year old male if that helps.

With all due respect to a fellow columnist I think the doctor is out to lunch on this one and should have used more tact. She likely doesn't realize that the questioner is asking because he noticed something different when he used the washroom and was concerned for his health and needing to know if this was fine and or not and if he needed to see someone about it.
By all accounts you are fine and I wouldn't worry. It has a lot to do also with what you have been eating. If you are noticing any real changes with bowel movements however, that wasn't there before ie: cramps and inability to pass things easily then that's when to see a doctor to find out why.
In that case a lot of people can have cramps so severe that they vomit. This likely isn't the case with you but IBS is what all of that usually encompasses.
Your question btw is a legitimate one to have asked if something seemed really strange to you. If you notice blood or anything that looks like it shouldn't be there that's a key sign to see a doctor about. Blood in stool or ones that are consistently black etc should be looked into. I wouldn't worry though abiut what you brought up here.

You are seventeen? Your question strongly suggests a younger age, perhaps twelve? I have a hard time believing that you are seriously having this issue.
Instead, it sounds to me like you may enjoy posting things about "poop" and "drugs", and if so, good luck with getting the answers you merit. (Who smells their feces, anyway?!)

I went looking on internet and someone asked same question, but they were a user of weed. Question answered by a Doctor. Here's link:

Since you don't use, it could be something else you smell. My nose picks up some scents as stuff other than what it really is. Like the scent of cooking rice can have two scents at same time, like rice and also like baby poop for me. Popcorn also smells like sweat to me combined with popcorn scent. So the amount you may inhale being around someone who is smoking weed, should be too little to affect the smell of your sweat or anything else. There is something in this world that your nose picks up as the scent of weed. So if you want to know, pay attention to every detail next time you smell it. If only smelled in bathroom, perhaps its a cleaner for bathroom that has that effect in your smelling, your own sweat, a food you recently ate, and so on. Once you know what is really the source of the scent, you can relax, knowing what it really is.
