What Causes White Tissue Discharge And Abdominal Cramping During Periods?

I m currently in the middle of my menstrual cycle and I have had white, tough tissue discharge for 2 days. Also, the cramps have been much more painful this time and I have irregular bowl movements. My period is also lasting longer than usual. I have not been sexually active and I am on the a birth control called Tri-Nessa. My cycles have been extremely regular to the point where I can expect it on a certain day and my period starts. I m curious if I should be worried about this or if it just some symptoms that happen randomly.

Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to menstrual syndrome. They are completely normal during the menstrual cycle. I suggest to use anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation. I also suggest to use warm compresses at the pelvic area to relieve the pain.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
