Suggest Treatment For Blood In Stool

Hi, I'm 16 years old and I have never had my period. Today I went to the bathroom to take a poop and when I wiped mucus that was a brownish/reddish color showed up on the toilet paper. When I got home, I felt a little constipated so I pushed a little and this brighter red mucus came out it was much more this time, but still not a ton. I went again later this evening and again i wiped and i saw an almost brown mucus come out and than it faded to a reddish color as i kept wiping. I can't tell if the mucus is coming from my butt or vagina. I thought that maybe I was about to start my period, but this blood only comes out when i poop. I'm very confused and worried, I need help!
