No wonder I've got a sore fanjo

[UnfinishedSymphon]

The fucking Aldi toilet paper I've been using for the past 2 weeks is fucking scented! What fresh hell is this?? I only noticed when I blew my nose, why the fuck do we need scented toilet paper?

The word fanjo brought me to this thread 😂

But you are correct, scented sanitary products of any kind are completely unnecessary! You may need to source some more loo roll, I wouldn't fancy keep using it if you're already sore

Scented doesn't bother me I'm pretty much a thrush free zone only during pregnancy in my life.

It's never occurred to me not to buy scented I don't go out of my way to get scented either but wouldn't say no to it if it was on offer.

Oh DP likes bringing the scented ones home because they smell nice.

I'm wondering who the hell he thinks is getting close enough to his arsehole to share.......as his rusty sheriff's badge is obviously a lot hardier than my delicate cheeks who develop thrush just walking past the stuff we now have his and her loo roll.

I

Shit

You

Not.

This pretty much sums up our relationship, even my arse is superior given it doesn't need Shea butter or lavender scents to get through the day.

I remember scented San Pro from the eighties. You could tell who was 'on' by the scent that waffted around the classroom before they entered!

The only bog roll we could get was Asda cherry blossom, even during panic buying other people were not desperate enough to buy it.

Come to think of it I've now got the beginning symptoms of thrush.

Yes the lock down has introduced me to coconut toilet paper I shit you not. Dirty bastards. Coconut. My arse was like a Bounty.

@Malvinaa81
Just wondering why you're on Mumsnet? And why you bothered to post!? 😄

So weird you are all having a reaction to this

Does anyone remember the 80’s trend of coloured loo roll? My mother bought pink and blue. She stopped after getting 3 UTI’s in a row.

@Malvinaa81are you ok?

Oh yes, I remember the coloured loo roll. Think I may have brought some.

I ‘generously’ gave away my coconut aldi loo roll to someone who was running out (i went makro ages ago and still have plenty left)

I’m not sad I did that 😂😂

Incidentally, the smelly sanpro is why I went over to washable pads which don’t irritate me and feel like cotton. Dp found it weird at first but when he realised the alternative was me screeching that my fanjo felt like it was on fire, he quickly came round 😂
The amount of times he’d be sent shopping and I’d instruct him to snuff the packs before even considering buying them... my favourite was when he FaceTimed me from a supermarket and said ‘Ellen people are looking at me funny. Women are backing away looking freaked out. The security guy has been over asking why I’m sniffing the fanny pads. I look like a weirdo. Can you just tell me which ones to buy so I can get out of here??!’
🤣🤣🤣
Bless him, all so i wouldn’t get thrush 🤣🤣

My partner bought 60 loo rolls off of amazon (pre Coronavirus panic buying) and I had one wipe and was sore. Because I'd learnt from ALDI I gave the roll a sniff and lo and behold we were the owners of 60 rolls of scented loo roll that I would never ever use. So out I went to buy more 🤦‍♀️ We had 84 loo rolls in our house and looked like the dickheads panic buying everything

My OH purchased some of the loo roll with coconut fragrance because he "likes the smell." I told him in no uncertain terms to never, ever buy it again as he really doesn't want to suffer the wrath of a heavily pregnant hormonal woman with raging thrush! He hasn't dared risk it since

I ended up having to hit up the Japanese market in my town to buy toilet roll as it was the only store that had it. It had cute pictures of Hello Kitty on them.

It was heartbreaking to use them. My daughter and granddaughter could be heard from the bathroom apologizing to Hello Kitty for what they had to do to her.

We are all a little traumatized.

I suppose it would have been worse if the dyes did some damage and she'd end up being "Bastard Kitty".

I once bought some by accident and I could feel my eyeballs peeling in the bathroom until I realised my mistake.

I bought some by mistake about a year ago. I don’t have particularly sensitive skin but it turned my lips really sore.

I feel your pain op.
We have a load of Andrex skin kind with aloe vera.. Ordered just the plain Charmin but it was substituted with the aloe vera stuff. Yuk... Nothing needs to be scented, it's gross.

my arse was like a Bounty

😂😂😂

SecretWitch yes and I miss it. I used to buy colour code the toilet roll to the bathroom decor, was def still buying it early 00's I wonder when it stopped?

elp30 I always felt like that with the snowman toilet paper.

manybirdsnests - should we be sending the stuff we hate to people who can’t afford nice stuff? Is it ok to have an itchy fanjo if you’re poor?

Get some Cushelle.
