Clear discharge after stool
by mizzrizz, Mar 07, 2009 12:44PM
I am a 23 year old, healhy vegetarian woman. After I have a bowel movement, I often find aclear discharge on the tissue. I have bowel movements about 5 times a week. I would say I'm fairly healthy but this problem does worry me a lot. Could somebody please tell me what this is and how it could be treated as I cannot afford to see a doctor. Thanks :)

You may want to consider testing the blood tests for celiac disease, stools for fecal fat, as well as pancreatic imaging studies and enzyme tests (i.e. amylase and lipase) for further evaluation.
If every test is negative, then treatment can be optimzed for irritable bowel disease (i.e. increasing fiber intake as well as possible antispasmodic agents).
Followup with your personal physician is essential.
