I am now using a stool softener (glycerine) pessary every second day as well as using this trainer and the relief has been amazing. This can be not only be unideal for individuals in general and perhaps even difficult for people with less mobility; but is also not always a hygienic option. The method of investigation will be a pre-post intervention design, which involves asking 30 women recruited from Royal Cornwall Hospitals to use Femmeze® over a period of 8 weeks. Femmeze rectocele device | The Femmeze is designed for women managing a rectocele conservatively by digitation.

Using the Femmeze splinting device will help you poo more easily, and take the strain off your vulnerable pelvic floor. Women with prolapse find the bowel is out of position, with Femmeze realigning the bowel for effective pooping, defecation, or elimination is easy to do, and less strain on an already weak pelvic floor.At last there is help for constipation and toileting difficulties if you have rectocele, mucosal prolapse and prolapsed rectum. The main purpose of the feasibility study is to identify the patient experience of Femmeze® which is a class 1 medical device aimed at improving posterior vaginal compartment prolapse (rectocele) for women with obstructive defaecation. When doing a bowel motion you probably find yourself either supporting the perineum (between the vagina and the anus ) with your hand, or inserting a finger or thumb into the vagina and pushing against the back wall to support your rectocele and assist the bowel motion to come out.

My rectocele also affects my bladder so I have to wear pads as well, I always need to know where a toilet is. When using this tool, users may find it helpful to have lubricant nearby to make insertion and removal easier and more comfortable. If a woman has a rectocele and is considering using the Femmeze it is strongly advised to seek a medical opinion to ascertain that the Femmeze may be of help with the grade and position of the rectocele.

Relieved that this seems to have helped solve my ongoing stool straining as a result of a diagnosed rectocele. The Femmeze vaginal splint is also good for women who find that when they toilet, they don’t fully empty their bowels and that no amount of toilet paper (which is uncomfortable and drying) will clear up the residue. The other time it is useful for myself is when I'm on my period and don't need the extra mess / hygiene issues of using my fingers. Femmeze® is shaped like a shoehorn, the paddle end of the device is gently inserted into the vagina and sits against the back wall of the vagina to allow you to support your rectocele whilst emptying your bowel. Hygienic, it repositions the bowel for effective elimination and can also be used before pelvic exercising (better with an empty bowel).
