I have a mild rectocele but the symptoms are horrible .. Loose vagina ,have to splint to pass stools, bloating and pressure sensation. I'm only 20 I want children in the future but can't deal with this anymore . How do I convince my specialist to refer me to surgery and has any of you had success with surgery? How was recovery? Did you get sick pay for being off work and how do you tell friends and family as it is sooo embarrising? Also how did your bf/husband react if you told them x

    Find a specialist in Physiotherapy. I know this seems futile to you right now as your suffering a lot. I get it. I would give it a whirl. Lots and lots of muscles down there. May just need strengthening. Seeing a HUGE difference in my own circumstances. Looks like some women have good results with surgery. Just a lot of stuff that goes along with it.  

    Best wishes for whatever you decide. We are all in the same boat. 

    Take care.
