Can odour sensitivity go away?

I used to think I would be insufficient as a wife and mother because my low tolerance of unpleasant smells meant I night not be able to clean up vomit without throwing up from the smell.

Now my dad can smell things I can't so I might be getting stronger. I read some people are wired so that even the smell of dead bodies does not bother them, they can handle any type of smell, no matter how bad it is.

Smell perception is also linked to how much are you used to those smells. A person living in a smelly home won’t feel that smell since he’s used to it, while other people will feel it.
Maybe the odours your father feels are the ones you’re used to it.
I’m a smell sensitive person too, and I tried dealing with my low smell endurance by smelling other perfumed things while dealing with the bad smelling other things, for example. This helps you, since excessive reacting to smells come from the brain, that reads your mind status about, for example, feces, vomit or other smelly things, as a predisposition of you to react badly. So if you trick your brain by using good smells while dealing with bad ones, you can better this.
