Hello,

Severe abdominal cramps with grey mucus vaginal discharge is not normal, it is indicative of bacterial infection called bacterial vaginosis. You are suggested to clinically get examined by a gynecologist to confirm BV. You will be tested for vaginal ph and vaginal sample taken for histopathological examination. You will be treated with a course of oral Metronidazole, Spasmol and antacids. Take care of your hygiene. You should not douche. Avoid over washing or use of perfumes, change your tampons, wear soft cotton clothes. Avoid sex and addictions if any.

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

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
