Could The Tilted Uterus Be Causing Difficulty During Bowel Movement?

whenever I have a bowel movement I have to lean back as if sitting in a recliner to be able to push the ecrement out and sometimes have to raise my legs pressing my knees together to get the muscles working. I have a tilted uterus and doctors have always had a hard time getting a speculum inserted for an exam. Could the titlted uterus be the cause? I am 60 years old and could this problem get worse as I age?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this is the position you must have been adopted on your own although it may not be needed so try to forget this and try to sit on conventional way, do not exert the force at the time of defecation, the small uterus is nothing to do with the condition you have, neither this is the condition of any disease related hope this information helps.
