No worries: Passing increased amounts of vaginal mucous is usually not a sign of anything serious. Given the timing of ~2 weeks after your last period it could be due of ovulation. If you have other symptoms, such as vaginal itching, burning, or a bad smell then it could be due to a vaginal infection (not STI). If you have had unprotected sex, you should be tested for sexually transmitted infection (STI).
