Okay it looks like a big glob of mucous literally, it can be anywhere from light green to clear and usually when you lose it all its a bit bloody not like a period or anything but light pink maybe brown, when you lose it in pieces its a smaller glob or like a stringy discharge i know it may gross you out but google it and go to images its pretty visual
