3rd Degree & Perineal Tear Clinic

[WooYa]

I'm 13 weeks PP and have received an appointment at 3rd Degree & Perineal Tear clinic. I have been given no other information except the appointment time. Does anyone have any experience or have any idea what is going to happen?
Thanks

I saw a nurse specialist who examined me and referred for an endo anal USS where they scan the sphincter muscles with a vibrating probe (not as bad as it sounds) to check for damage.

Thank you ☺️

I saw a consultant. He examined me vaginally and anally and asked me to “squeeze” both times. Then used an ultrasound probe to check the healing of the sphincter muscles. Asked me how I was, did I have any pain etc. Then made another appointment for 3ish months time if I remember rightly.

I didn’t even find it embarrassing. The third degree tear and subsequent trip to theatre got rid of all my dignity

Sounds like fun I can't wait! Haha thank you

He may also have asked if I’d had intercourse yet. The answer was “of course I bloody haven’t”

That's my answer too! after what happened to me? No thanks!
