💬 “Beta, try not to use the toilet outside.”

If you grew up in India, you’ve probably heard this from a worried parent — and maybe said it yourself. Whether it’s at a highway dhaba, a train station, a school, or even a workplace, public toilets in India are often something we go out of our way to avoid.

But when nature calls, you can’t exactly negotiate. And for many — especially women, kids, seniors, and people prone to UTIs — using public washrooms isn’t just inconvenient. It’s a health risk.

Let’s talk about it… and more importantly, how we can fix it.

 The Indian Public Toilet Scene (Brace Yourself)

Here’s the real deal most of us don’t talk about:

●      💧 No running water

●      ❌ No soap or sanitizer

●      🤢 Unclean, wet, or soiled seats

●      🦠 High chances of infection — from UTIs to skin issues

Whether you’re a daily commuter, a traveler, a student, or a working woman on the go — the fear of “what’s waiting in the washroom” is real.

And most people have a strategy:

●      Hold it in (unhealthy)

●      Use tissues and squat (awkward & unsafe)

●      Say a silent prayer and go for it (not ideal)

⚠️ The Real Health Risks

While the idea of “catching something” from a toilet seat may sound exaggerated, the risks are real:

●      UTIs (especially in women and kids)

●      Fungal infections

●      Gastrointestinal illnesses

●      Bacterial cross-contamination

Public toilets are breeding grounds for microbes — and we’re not being dramatic. Studies show that E. coli, staph, and even antibiotic-resistant bacteria can live on toilet seats and surrounding surfaces.

 What Can You Do? (Other Than Avoiding Water Forever)

You can’t fix every public washroom in India. But you can protect yourself, your family, or your staff with one small, smart habit:

Carry your own protection.

And no, we don’t mean a giant spray bottle or a roll of tissue.
