Midstream urine collection with a device having an upper portion which forms an initial collection well, and a lower portion divided into an initial stream collection reservoir and a midstream collection reservoir. The device further includes a collection cavity and drain to allow a urine stream to flow into the housing. The device further includes a rotatable diverter adapted to rotate between: a first position in which an actuation panel is positioned to separate the initial collection well from the initial stream collection reservoir and a deflection panel is positioned to separate the initial collection well from the midstream collection reservoir; and a second position in which the deflector panel deflects the urine stream received through the collection drain into the midstream collection reservoir. The actuation panel comprises a piece of absorbent material affixed to a top surface thereof, within the initial collection well.
