What Causes Mucus With Stool And Excessive Stomach Gas?

My stool for the past month is sometimes normal and sometimes nothing but mucus and I feel like I have to go to the bathroom constantly and I have a lot of gas when this happens. Tonight for the first time I noticed the mucus was light and dark orange so this concerns me. This usually happens right before I start my period. I do not eat healthy. I do not like any fruits and vegetables but I do drink V8. I have ALOT of drainage constantly. What can be causing this???
