Dear XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX ,

Welcome to justanswer.com

As per your description it seems you are suffering from genital prolapse when pelvic organs like bladder, rectum slip down from their normal anatomical position and either protrude into the vagina or press against the wall of the vagina.
This can be rectocele or cystocele .
But symptoms are more prominent while bowel motion rectocele can be a possibility.
You should consult your obs/gyn doctor .
Rectocele
