Old stain on white dress

May 3, 2021

Question

Thank you for all that you do!

I wore an off-white dress today and found light pink stains on the bottom of it later in the day. I think it is likely that it is an old stain. I am on birth control and did not see any staining when wiping or on underwear (although the underwear is dark). Is this a niddah problem?

Answer

If the stains seem like old stains, and especially since you didn’t notice any other staining today, you may disregard them.
