Hi,
It can be thread worms being passed through stools, coincidently accompanying periods. It typically has itching at the vagina, anus, and nostrils and motion can be constipated or normal. Alternatively, this can be due to trichomonal vaginitis or yeast infection causing severe itching at vagina along with milky white, curdy white discharge. This can accompany periods. It is present in both sex partners. The exam CT cause needs to be found by a physical examination followed by specific medication (to both sex partners if needful).
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

You have history of having worms. You are getting similar feelings as you used to feel when worms were detected. You are suggested to get stool examination (R/E and C/S) and stool test for parasites done. If worms are detected you will need to get a course of deworming medicines depending on the type of parasite detected.
Get clinically examined by a GP, get treated. Neglect may cause severe poisoning, anemia, dehydration. Take care of your hygiene, change clothes regularly after bath/shower. Wear soft cotton clothes, always wash hands properly before eating anything. Avoid eating raw fruits, berries, fruits without washing. Stay active. Avoid addictions if any.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
