Bleached Gusset - Sorry

Sorry for the G word in the title Blush

My vagina is bleaching my knickers! Just wondering if anyone else has this problem?

I know it is likely to be something to do with the ph but I'm otherwise healthy down there.

Wearing panty liners all day every day seems to go against the point of cotton knickers. But all my coloured pants have this bleached appearance in the crotch. I'm too embarrassed to hang them on the line or over the radiators.

Is there anything I can do?

I can't believe I have typed half of these words let alone that I'm going to post them on the net Blush. Please work name change.

I am using Waitrose essential and/or Biotex these days and the gussets of the knackered knickers are still fine.

The M&S ones I bought the other day are running a bit big too. Hmm

Well I honestly thought I was a worry wort, but I've never ever batted an eyelid about bleached gussets!

I thought they did use urine to lighten thing in the oooold days?!

Hi there.
I have the same problem.
I have decided to order some multicoloured fabric pens to colour them in. I have expensive grey knickers that have pink bleach spots. Might just do the trick.

There's peroxide in blood - I always figured that's what did the bleaching, especially of cotton, but I can only wear cotton.

Some people just don't seem to exude bleach.

NotCitrus I don't tend to notice it more during my period, but probably because I'm usually wearing knickers already affected.

havent read the whole thread, it was about 6 months into relationship
my knickers were on radiator drying, partner asked me what the stain was, i just told him "woman",

he said he had never seen it on pants before, he is an only boy with many sisters, until that day i assumed every womans pants were like that so i brought it up with a couple of my close female friends none of who knew what i meant so i shut up and decided i was a weirdo

We are still together over 9 years later, his mum has packed overnight hospital bags when needed with smart knickers / supply of comfy but bleached / have also ended up a few times with sexy stuff by accident Blush
