What Causes Mucus In Stool After Taking Probiotic Supplement?

I have mucus in my stool and the only thing I can link to causing it that I have been taking a probiotic supplement for a while. I stopped taking the supplement about two weeks ago but still seeing some mucus. What do you think this means or what should I do?

Hi,

The presence of mucus may be due to bacterial or any parasitic infection, there is no link between probiotics and mucus in stool.

I hope I have answered your query. If you have further doubts, I would be happy to help you. Happy day.
