Rectocele Repair (Posterior Vaginal Wall Repair)

Rectocele occurs when the rectum bulges into the vaginal wall due to weakened pelvic floor muscles. This condition can cause discomfort, difficulty in bowel movements, a sense of pelvic pressure, and challenges in daily activities. At Chadha Hospital, we offer advanced rectocele repair surgery to restore normal pelvic support and improve quality of life.

What is Rectocele?

A rectocele happens when the tissue between the rectum and vagina (the rectovaginal septum) becomes weak or damaged, causing the rectum to push against the vaginal wall.

Common Causes include:

  • Childbirth trauma

  • Aging and menopause

  • Chronic constipation

  • Pelvic floor weakness

  • Heavy lifting

  • Previous pelvic surgeries

Symptoms of Rectocele

Women with rectocele may experience:

  • Vaginal bulge or pressure

  • Difficulty passing stool

  • Constipation or incomplete bowel movements

  • Need to press around the vagina to pass stool (splinting)

  • Lower back or pelvic discomfort

  • Pain during intercourse

If these symptoms affect daily life, surgical repair may be recommended.
