When I pee it's not red anymore but I wipe and it's red what does that mean

Okay so what you're describing is totally normal during your period or even right before or after it. When you pee, the blood isn't usually mixed in with your actual pee. Instead, it comes from your uterus and leaves through your vagina, which is a totally separate opening from the one your pee comes out of.
So when you're on the toilet, gravity can make some of the blood drip down. And then when you wipe, you're just cleaning up any blood that came out of your vagina during that time. It's not like your pee is turning red, it's just two different things happening at the same time. This can also happen when your period is just starting or ending, and the flow is really light, so you might only notice it when you wipe.
It's all part of how your body works during your cycle. If you're ever worried about really heavy bleeding or pain, always talk to a grown-up.
