Rectocele repair

Posted , 5 users are following.

I am looking into finding a doctor at UNC Urogynecology to have a Rectocele/ enterocele repair. I am a little nervous about pain and ability to have my sex life and bowel movements return to normal. Bowel movements are horrible and I feel nothing but a big numb void vaginally.

Any suggestions or anything????

    I had surgery at UNC 8 weeks ago for enterocele, rectocele, vaginal repair and my surgeon was Sammantha Pullium and she is great.

      How do you feel 8 weeks out. Can you have sex yet??? Any difference? ??

       Sorry I just saw your reply. I'm now 15 weeks out and still have some days where I feel pressure but they say this is normal. I am a widow so I can't help in that area. I can say I would strongly recommend Dr. Pullium in Chapel Hill North Carolina. Let me hear from you. Praying  for you.
