Went to the restroom earlier and noticed my brand new white underwear are purple! Discharge is normal, but in that region they are purple! I wear leggings and put everything on right after a shower this morning. I googled this and it seems like it's a rare thing that happens to pregnant women from a ph in the skin, but later in pregnancy. I'm only 8 weeks. Anyone else? Should I mention it to my dr?

Because these types of posts generally don’t go over well and then they get dirty deleted by the original poster. Later others come in to see what all the fun was about and the original post is gone so nobody else can play becaue they don’t understand the topic. Once it’s been quoted, even if OP DD’s, it lives on forever in the quote so all can join in on the fun

There are some descriptions of this happening outside pregnancy as well, and is usually a condition called pseudochromhidrosis. Basically, some people's sweat interacts with medications, bacteria on the skin, or even prenatal vitamins to produce a color. If the color on your underwear follows a typical sweat pattern, that's my bet. There are lots of sweat glands in the genital region. Did you just start taking prenatals recently, or have you been on them a while? Any other medications (treatment for Crohn's disease also comes up, but not sure on the sources there)?

I cannot stop picturing Grimace on the crotch of a pair of underwear. I think I will have odd dreams tonight.
