Hello I’m posting on here out of desperation. I have a 12 month old and a few months in from having him my vagina has been very weak. I used to suffer from chronic constipation (not anymore) then had him vaginally. When I strain for a toilet the bottom of my vagina buldges and I have to regularly press the buldge in to pass a stool. I do feel my cervix is also lower but the bowels are my main issue. I religiously do my pelvic floor exercises but haven’t seen much difference. My sex life feels like it is failing I don’t feel much down there anymore my vagina is very lax and wide. I need to speak to my partner but I’m so embarrassed. I’ve contacted doctors and waiting back for an appointment hoping they will refer me. Im only 27 but I definitely want/need some sort of surgery I can’t keep living life like this. Has anyone had surgery? If so what was the process and the wait for nhs ( im in the uk). I do want more children but if it means I couldn’t have surgery then I wouldn’t have any more. Please any advice , just want my old vagina back I feel broken
