    Yes, yes, yes. I have noticed big changes in this area. I have times when the smell of freshly brewed coffee (which I ordinarily love) makes me feel queasy and nauseous.

    Yep! I've noticed my sense of smell is alot stronger. Certain smells..e.g air fresheners and deodorants bother me.

    It is strange isn't it? I love perfume too but have noticed over the last year or so that certain scents are way too strong. I think it may have something to do with progesterone. I was in a gift shop with a friend recently and the smell of the scents, candles and diffusers made me so ill i had to leave the shop.
