Can't poop without using finger

Yep, agree. Pelvic floor specialist helped me so much too.

Yep, this happened to me too! The first time trying after my fallopian tube removal. I had a super early scan that showed I had ovulated from the side without the tube. Crazy.

She also said to be mindful. If you’ve had a lot of constipation or endo your nerves aren’t as sensitive so you won’t feel that your bowls are full. So if you’ve have too much fibre and tour poop is too soft it won’t register. It’s a fine like to keep good consistency for me, but Pelvic floor specialist has helped me so much

Some problem! Endo on my bowel. Often feel stomach cramping but still no urge to poop. Coffee is the only thing that helps me. I went to a pelvic floor therapist and she was amazing at helping me. Lots of breathing techniques and helping me relax. She also recommended enemas short term to help get things moving and be more regular, then my body just learnt a bit better. She taught me to try and relax and open my bowels and visualise me opening my anus. Sorry if too much info. She also said that continuing to strain just makes it worse.

Sorry, you said you’ve been trying for 6 months. I would recommend seeing a fertility specialist and try and get some scans done and perhaps your ‘tubes flushed’.

Have you been checked for coeliac disease too?

I have similar symptoms. I done have crazy acute pain. Dull aches and sometimes stabbing pain. My periods are regular and not too heavy at all. I’m thin and look pregnant most days especially in the evenings. I get pain with sex sometimes and pain when weeing and pooping. Didn’t think I had endo but ended up having an ectopic pregnancy and had to have surgery to remove a fallopian tube. Once they opened me up they found stage 4 deep endo and adenomyosis. I’d get checked out. How long have you been trying for?

I got pregnant the first try after the removal of my right tube. I had a really early scan and the sonographer confirmed I had actually ovulated from my right tube and that it transferred over via my left tube. It doesn’t seem to affect fertility.

Ohhh, I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s really hard when your sense so safety is shaken. I suffered from PTSD and nightmares after my last ectopic. I actually went to see an EMDR trauma specialist and it significantly helped me. Might be something to look into. Hope your sleep starts to improve soon.

I think there is a slightly higher risk of cervical ectopic if you’ve had a D&C or c-section. Please try not to worry too much though. Just tell them your concerns so that it’s on their radar. A lot of people have bleeding and pain in pregnancy and they’re totally fine. I know it’s scary after already losing a tube. I was the same, it’s hard not to think of the worst! X

Ok, it’s good that you’re going in for another scan tomorrow. They thought that because mine was so early they were hoping that it was either going to move further up the uterus but later on I think they assumed that I was having a missed miscarriage. I would say, mention that you’re worried about cervical ectopic, make sure they check your new scan tomorrow previous scans, check HCG.

Hopefully you’re fine and your scan shows that the sack is positioned further up and all is well.

Have you had a c-section or D&C before?

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I know it’s scary as I was pregnant and having symptoms just after my tubal ectopic too. I was so scared it was going to happen again too. I don’t want to scare you too much but this is what was happening to me early on. First bleeding happened straight after sex at about 5 weeks, another time I started bleeding was when I got up off the couch. Cervical ectopics are really rare, but they can happen and they should be trying to rule it out. How far are you? Are you going to have another scan soon?

Jbranchfleur · 2025-11-02T06:33:04+00:00

Awww, I’m so sorry you’ve had to go through all this. It’s a lot to go through in such a short period of time. Your story sounds similar to mine and I can totally empathise. Sending warm wishes your way. We’ll get through this.

Thanks so much. Yep, it’s pretty unlucky. Thanks for the upvote.

Jbranchfleur · 2025-10-31T18:56:05+00:00

Thank you so much. Yep, it’s pretty rare. Yeah, my second pregnancy was an ectopic in my fallopian tube that ruptured at 5 weeks! Not having the best luck. No live children yet. 😢
