Rectocele anyone?

[LadyNZ]

I am looking for other women's experiences regarding a rectocele? I was diagnosed around 25 years ago but really had no symptoms until recently. Now I have a feeling of pressure in my rectum most of the time and it's very uncomfortable. I was wondering what measures others have taken ... an operation or pessary and were you happy with the results. I'm using estriol cream for vaginal health, but I started forgetting to use it and then ran out so wasn't getting the most out of it. I think it has weakened my vaginal wall and made the rectocele worse. To make matters worse, I also have a yeast and bladder infection. Years ago I also had a fibroid and am now thinking I need to see a gynacologist to check that out. I basically feel bloated and uncomfortable.

Has anybody found that losing weight and Kegel exercises helped?

Thank you.
