I have already had vaginal rejuvenation and a rectocele repair and am completely healed. I have seen it said that if you are a weight lifter you shouldn’t have this surgery. Is this true? Will it affect my results if I do weight lifting? I just would like to know if there are any limitations when working out to avoid causing laxity in my pelvic floor.

Answer: HEAVY LIFTING AFTER VAGINAL REJUVENATION Thank you for your questionThe answer depends on the type and quality of the repairs you received. A good solid repair should not be affected by weight lifting. There is no procedure called vaginal rejuvenation. It is the effect of any number of procedures that make the vagina more "youthful", so the quality of the repairs depend on the method(s) used. Site specific defect repair is probably the most efficient . Discuss the issue with your surgeon who would best know the type of procedure performed and the limits you should have.

Answer: Should weightlifters have vaginal rejuvenation and rectocele repair? There's nothing wrong with having vaginal rejuvenation surgery (vaginal tightening aka vaginoplasty) and a rectocele repair if you are a weightlifter. Be aware, however, that intense, heavy weightlifting will put significant stress on the pelvic floor and increase the chance that your repairs will loosen. If you have other factors that increase the chance for the repairs to loosen such as obesity, chronic cough, constipation, smoking, fisting, large sex toys, vaginal childbirth after your repairs, you might want to address them as much as possible to avoid "breaking the camel's back".
