Why Stains on the Underwear?

Tuesday, October 15, 2019 - 1:15am

Ever bought a pair of fancy panties, only to find brown or bleach-like stains in the crotch area after just a few wears?

Key Points: 
  • Ever bought a pair of fancy panties, only to find brown or bleach-like stains in the crotch area after just a few wears?
  • There's nothing to panic about because it's absolutely normal; in order to help your body to clean itself, the discharge contains protein, amino acids, and carbohydrates.
  • The normal vaginal discharge pH range falls between 3.5 and 4.5, such acidic level can discolor clothing a bit.
  • Most of the experts advise against wearing tampons to soak up discharge if you dont have your period.
