Suggest Treatment For Bowel Movement Problems

I am 26 years old and I recently started having difficulty having bowel movements while my period is on. When I do have a BM it is very difficult and the only thing that comes out is a jelly like substance. I feel a constant pressure like I need to use the bathroom and it is very uncomfortable. It starts mid cycle and continues about a day or so after my cycle goes off. Do I need to be worried, what can I do to help/fix this, and is this normal.

HI
Well come to HCM
Thank for asking
I appreciate your concern, the given symptoms are not due to menses but it seems to be due to protozoa infection but it is nothing to take anything with menses, it may cause the cramping only but passing of mucus is not likely, if I would be doctor of this case then I would try to treat this case with single dose of Sacnidazole 1 G, else it is nothing to worry hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
