Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
Hot burning mucus in stool is indicative of the following:
Intestinal infection with peri-anal excoriation of the skin.
I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Get the stool tests done and get started on Metronidazole and proper antibiotic cover along with pre and probiotics.
Take boiled and cooled water only.
Soft bland diet avoiding any foods and beverages that instigate or enhance your problems. Fresh homemade food only to be consumed.
About the Depo shots causing prolapse of uterus needing hysterectomy: Such a relation is not much known but still can occur as Depo shorts are hormonal and can cause many complications. Consult your Gynecologist as She would know the things better.
