Why Is My Toilet Seat Turning Blue

People its not wet blue jeans and its not from any dye or cleaning product.

Why is my toilet seat turning blue. That s why the largest number of people who reported a blue toilet seat were pregnant women. Just clean the seat with a good cleanser. This is because of the coating that the seat is made of. I feel like an idiot even writing this but i swear to god it s a real thing and the mystery is killing me.

Many companies use cheap dye that rubs off on your skin particularly the darker washes. I started turning my official toilet seat blue meaning the main toilet seat i use consistently blue for over 10 years now which means 3 toilet seats in 3 different houses. Likewise in individuals who are not pregnant hormone levels that are out of balance appear to be wreaking havoc on pristine toilet seats everywhere. This is reasonable answer to consider since the blue tint on the toilet seat is only where contact has occurred between the skin and the toilet.

Cheaper toilet seats are more guilty of this but nothing s perfect. It has has has to be hormone related. The increased levels of hormones that are present during pregnancy might be the reason. Sitting on the toilet seat puts body oils and sweat skin flakes dirt etc on the toilet seat.

So when the skin interacts with the toilet seat it can cause a change of color. It is most probably pseudochromhidrosis. Why on earth would pregnancy lead to a blue toilet seat. Which would make sense why this.

I am 33 years old and i have never been on prenatal vitamins either. Some have speculated that it has something to do with a reaction between the hormones or chemicals excreted through a woman s skin during pregnancy and the components of the toilet seat. Do you wear dark blue jeans. If it is the correct assumption you should be able to kill the bacteria with antibacterial swap like hibiclens.

So a few weeks ago somebody who might have been me though i m honestly not certain sat on the white toilet seat in my bathroom and now there is a blue almost indigo stain on exactly and only the parts of the seat where skin would have been in contact. I have never been pregnant in my life. Do what the very first and most credible answer suggests and go get some acid test strips and check your acid level. It is usually caused by an extremely rare bacteria assumed to be benign that produce a dark blue oxidizing pigment in you sweat.

Since you don t sit on exactly the same spot every time you d expect the dirt to cover a larger area than your body itself the toilet seat is not perfectly smooth nonporous giving this stuff a place to stick. In any case this is pretty hilarious. Tiny droplets of blue water come out of the toilet when you flush. For as long as i can remember my hormones have been a insane rollercoaster.

And then when you sit on the toilet a bunch of times the seat will get stained too.
