I’m sorry but kegels are not the answer. Idc if you’re a RN, but I have done kegels all throughout my 4 of my pregnancies & after. This didn’t help me at all. I still have a bulge & still have the rectocele. Now maybe you should advise people that when you have a minor bulge kegels can help, but not when it’s a major bulge & the walls are weak from multiple births & large babies. Surgery should be your last option especially if you’ve exhausted all other options & trust me I have. I’ve been waiting a whole year to get this surgery just for that exact reason. Yet I still have a bulge. Basically the best way for me to explain it is have a hotdog between two buns. The buns being my vagina lips.

@Priya no they won't do it bc they said I could still have a child & if they do the surgery the urogynocologist said she would give my a hysterectomy as well

It have been reaserch who show that kegles dont work after people have gotten a prolapse.

I have been complaining of painful intercourse for a while now and felt something bulging and finally fast forward I had an MRI and have a mild rectocele and I initially had straining with urination .My next step is a f/u and really scared of surgery

[@bz2017]

Did you have the surgery?

[@mw87675]

What about vaginal childbirth. Is is still possible?

[@mblabezza]

Yes, I did it :)

[@xierxu]

What is it called if the prolapse is higher up in the rectum?

[@sarahm2878]

I have to kick my legs straight out and lean way back to poop.

[@iamenough6958]

Wow
So not Prolaspse

[@mblabezza]

Yeah who knew! I’m in the same boat

[@gorillarod]

Me too, just got diagnosed. Looks like surgery is in my immediate future.
