Before surgery I had rectocele and rectal prolapse (it was falling out into the vaginal canal AND out the anus) and I would have to manually go in to help empty. An event that took 7 hours straight. I know the struggle. Also have seen people use a pelvic wand to help if going in with fingers feels gross. (Even with gloves it was unpleasant)

I believe I read that putting your finger in your vagina can help push your rectum back up enough to empty properly. I hope you have found some relief though!!
