A member asked:
I passed a small blood clot with a white strand attached today. what could it be? a week before my period

Probably just blood: We can not really know for sure since we did not see it. It sounds like you are just seeing vaginal secretions attached to old blood as it goes through its degradation process called oxidation. That is my best guess.
