Stool color HELP

[Chasesmun]

Good evening.  Clearly I googled. My stool is very light in color. Like a light beige tan ( not normal for me ) an online scares me.  Is it okay for stool to be light in color as long as it’s not white or does this mean something is wrong ? Can anything cause this not on medication 37 year old woman slightly overweight no known issues

Hello~Mine is always light. I told my doctor about it once and she said it was nothing to worry about, mine can range from normal brown to yellow. In some folks this is normal, but if it isn't normal for you, then ask your GP.

How long has it been this way?

2-3 days today

That isn't long enough for any real concern.  It could be due to something you ate or drank, or sometimes, stool just changes.  If it persists longer than a few weeks, you should see a doctor.
