    If you have a rectocele you would notice difficulty passing a motion as the faeces would have to negotiate a bend. You would also notice the bend as a hard bulge in the back wall of the vagina. Usually felt with your finger on exploring the vagina.

    Middle of March doesnt seem too long to wait for an appointment so dont worry. Your problem may be annoying but these things are common and happen to so many women...so that is why you are having to wait.
