Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 24 year old female, never been sexually active. This week I noticed clear mucus "plugs" or "clots" as I passed urine. I also noticed the same type of mucus surrounding my stool. I had slight stomach pain. Is this normal? Too much fat in diet? Thanks!
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your symptoms seem to be related to ulcerative colitis. Some advices that I can give to you are: -Do a complete blood count. -Do a stool test. -Do an endoscopy to confirm the diagnosis. Meanwhile you should: -Avoid spicy food, caffeine and alcohol. -Eat fibers. -Drink liquids.
Hope my answer was helpful!
Kind Regards, Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
