Is A Dry Chunk On The Toilet Paper During Pregnancy A Concern?

I m 36 weeks pregnant I went to the #1 today and when I wiped I noticed this tan chunk on the paper. I inspected it closer and it was dry, sort of sticky, and shredded like wet paper towel roll would. I did feel the baby move before and after this happened. I also seem to be having lots of BH contractions now...

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi ma'am
Thank you for asking ask a doctor service.
I have gone through your query with diligence. Your problem can be most likely due to infection. Fungal and bacterial infections can give such picture. Better to have a swab test and ultrasound examination to know the exact status. Antibiotics will be required in case of infection.
Thanks.
