front to back. if go back to front, then u'll get some bacteria around ur urethra...setting u up for a uti (urinary tract infection). in fact, always wipe from front to back (even after peeing).
too much toilet paper? ..just use at least 3 squares.

Wipe from front to back as not to bring any suprises to your package.And to each his own on how much is enough. My sister pees a roll of paper a day and that is just her. I think women do use more paper, but our stuff is more complicated. So again -what ever you need use, you pay for it.

Keeping your genital area clean may reduce the chances of introducing bacteria through the urethra. Wipe the genital area from front to back to reduce the chance of "dragging" bacteria from the rectal area to the urethra.
Please see the webpage for more details on Urinary tract infection- cronic and recurrent.

Front to back. And use as little toilet paper as you can because using too much is wasteful and expensive, and will clog up your toilet.
