Erratic periods now brown & gooey - early 30

Wise mumsnet I need your help. (Tried getting into Gp but it's a six week wait for appointment) has anyone experienced anything similar?

Background: I'm 32, periods used to be irregular until I had my first dc at 24 then they found a pattern - 5 days on, lightish at the end of the month give or take a day. I suffer with UTIs almost monthly but on the whole fit and healthy.

We had a bit of upheaval last year and bought my first home in October. Since October my periods have been absolutely erratic not on time / all over the shop. December I had two periods - one four days between 8th and the 11th then I came back on the 21st to the 28th. This month I've had a ten day period started on the 21st - I'm still going! It started off heavy on day one-two lots of little clots- then from day three it's been light and brown. Now its dark brown and gooey - similar texture to when you ovulate (ie like snot).

What's going on with my body? I'm at a loss - we are going through a bit/ lot of stress with money at the moment and I'm a bit down with the house move but otherwise I feel quite normal. How can I get myself back into a rhythm?

You need some professional medial advice here, not Mumsnet.

Thank you I've tried getting through to thr gp I do have an appointment but it's not until the 3rd March! I'll try again today and see if I can get anything sooner.😣 I just thought if someone out there had been through something similar they may have a positive outcome to reassure or found taking b12 helped (for example) - I know some threads on here offered handholds or just some friendly support.😅
