Embarrassing Underwear Problem

Embarrassing Underwear Problem

This is pretty embarrassing, so please be kind!

It seems no matter how much I wipe after using the bathroom my white underwear winds up stained a little yellow. ::hide:: When using the bathroom, sometimes the stream of urine will drip down from my buttocks or inner thigh, so I have more ground to cover with toilet paper to make sure I'm clean. In those cases, I really wipe like crazy and yet...I still cannot wear white underwear. There always seems to be something left over to stain my underwear this unsightly color. Can someone give some guidance without adding to my humiliation for even having to ask this? I'd really appreciate it!

I keep those flushable baby wipes near the toilet and use those after I've used to toilet paper first. I think it helps. :)

Hey there,
This is completely normal!  This happens to every woman (and probably guy too).  I for one always have a slight yellow stain on my underwear.  It's not a factor of how well you wipe -- I think a small amount of urine just naturally gets secreted throughout the day.
Anyway, no reason for humiliation or concern whatsoever.

normal vaginal discharge dries a yellow color on underwear as well.
