A member asked:
Good day all, i am currently 14 weeks pregnant, is it normal for stool to have jelly like substances in it / mucus ? i am also experiencing runny tummy , but that usually happens after a while of constipation and usually lasts about 1 day.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
In pregnancy: increased constipation is common, requiring laxatives. If gastrointestinal infection, or inflammation occurs, the mucous stool could result, testing with doctor is advised, if this pattern continues.

Occasional mucus&constipation. I was worried about colon cancer.Dr said she won't beable to order stool test because of age/history. Colonoscopy is risky but it's up to me if I want one. She did do rectal exam. She never felt any masses. How accurate?
