Two years ago I had a third degree cystocele and rectocele. Had no insurance and had to go
to state hospital.Three months later felt severe back pain and went back to the DR and she
said she could see nothing wrong so time went by and I may add could not have intercourse
either. Finally I got insurance and had another surgery three weeks ago by another DR  I
had a rectocele and a enterocele . She said from the surgery before I was left very narrow
inside and she saw a ridge that may be causing me not to have sex. I am left hopeless that I
 ever will be able to have intercourse again and I am in a 11 year realsionship that I am
 ready to give up . Is there any thing that can correct this? I never had a problem before
the first surgery the pain is the worst . Thank you Christine.
