Peppermint capsules causing tingling?

Hi! I have a very strange question, can't find the answer on Google lol. Has anyone who takes peppermint supplement capsules noticed that they have a minty tingling in their privates after they have a wee? I feel like I've washed myself in peppermint down there but obviously I haven't! I have however taken a supplement this morning, I'm burping mint lol so wondered if maybe it's making my urine pepperminty?

I've taken peppermint capsules before for my stomach issues and do find I have minty burps afterwards but I can't say I've had a minty tingling sensation down there, or not that I've noticed! I've stopped taking them now in favour of probiotics.
