    Are you talking about a rectal prolapse or a rectocele? A rectal prolapse involves the bowel sagging from outside the anus because of lack of muscle tone. Its the lack of tone that can give the effect of a lot of wind being passed, because the woman cant control it.

    A rectocele is a bulge in the back wall of the vagina where the back passage forms a loop and pushes into the vaginal wall. There is not so much wind with this problem.

    Cutting out foods which create wind will lessen the effect

      hi,

      iam talking about an internal rectal prolapse, can that cause lots of wind?

      i still dont understand how so much wind need to be passed with it... because isnt it about the food creating gas?

      if before a prolapse i had to fart only once, and now 50 times , the volume is completely different!!

      how suddenly so many farts is possible?
