Doctor can evaluate: A doctor can check to see if there is a medical issue, if a woman has mild menstrual-related symptoms. Many women have some variation of their mucus discharge, of their periods, or a missed period on occasion. Some women feel normal after a few days, but others have bothersome symptoms (such as "really bad" cramps) and go to see a doctor. Symptoms may be due to occasional fluctuations in hormones.
