Yes, it's normal to get dark mucus during menstruation. As well as discharge and your menstrual flow, including uterine tissue, cervical mucus will be carried along with the rest of your menstrual flow. It's completely normal to see blood mucus which may look dark brown, red, or even black.

Can you flush tampons down RV toilets?
No, you cannot flush tampons down any toilet.Tampons don't break-down in water, instead they expand which can cause serious problems such as blockages i any toilet system. In normal toilets the tampons can also bypass sewage treatment so end-up in waterways such as in rivers and the ocean, where they are an eyesore and can harm wildlife. Tampons should always be wrapped-up and thrown in the bin, that's what bins are there for.

It's okay, but not the best solution. Toilet paper is good if your period starts and you have no supplies with you, but as it's not very absorbent and falls apart it's not great to use all the time. It is much better to use menstrual products such as pads, tampons or menstrual cups.

Can you flush tampons down the toilet when using a septic tank?
You cannot flush tampons down any toilet. Although tampon manufacturers claim their products are flushable they say this to make their products seem more convenient and don't care about what they can do to the sewage system: blocking the toilet or pipes further-up the system, which can cost billions per year for water authorities to fix. Furthermore tampons can bypass sewage treatment and make it into the sea. Always wrap-up your tampons and throw in the bin.
What if you don't have any pads or tampons and your period starts in public?
If your period starts in public then firstly you can buy tampons or pads, either from a store or most public bathrooms have vending machines with tampons and pads.

If there's no other option then you can simply use folded up toilet paper in your underwear until you can get supplies.

Can a tampon be flushed and go through a sewage grinder?
Tampons should never be flushed. Many tampon companies claim their tampons can be flushed to make them seem more convenient - as they are self-regulated they can make these claims even if not true, as long as a tampon passes the Brunelle Flushability test where a tampon passes the U bend in a toilet set-up in a laboratory they can call tampons 'flushable'. Tampons don't break-down in water like waste or toilet paper, instead they expand so can cause major blockages in the toilet or further-up the system, tampons can also bypass sewage treatment systems and make their way into waterways.

Is it normal to have blood in your urine during your period?
No, it's not normal to have blood in your urine during your period. If you are using external menstrual products like pads, or internal products like tampons or softcups that can leak, then blood lingering around the vaginal opening or vulva will be washed off by urine as you urinate and so there will be blood in the toilet bowl. If there is blood in the urine itself, not from menstrual flow, then it is a sign of a urinary tract infection (common if you use commercial menstrual pads such as Always or Kotex) and you should talk to your doctor.
