Can you live without a rectum?

Answer 1

I had my rectum removed in June of 2022, with a temporary ileostomy out in place. In Oct of 2022, I had the reversal surgery done and the ileostomy removed. My colon was stretched and attached to my anus. After the surgery was done, it took about 3 1/2 days for the first bowel movement to happen. Then they let me return home. once home it was a pretty rough go for the first two months, having to go many times a day with my butt very sore. After about two months it has started to gradually improve. I am writing this in early July 2023, approx. 8 1/2 months after the reversal surgery. For me things have improved. Some days I still have to go frequently, some days I only have to go a couple of times. The first few weeks after the reversal are very rough, but things will improve over time.

Answer 2

Well, there's one way I know to make your butt larger and you can try weight lifting. If you use machines that strengthen the back of the upper thighs then they will also help shape your butt to look larger and muscular.

Answer 3

If you didn't have buttocks I would imagine you would have a really hard time sitting - it would be uncomfortable and pelvic bones would rattle against chairs. You would also have trouble walking, since gluteus maximus (that's the muscle that largely makes up the buttock) is necessary to swing the leg back.

If you didn't have the other significant part of the butt which is between the buttocks you would probably have a different way of excreting waste than you do now. Perhaps it would be sweated out.

There is some question as to whether you would be attractive. If you were the only one with no butt, then you probably would not be considered pretty. If you came from an alien race where nobody had a butt, then you might be perfectly fine in their eyes.

Well if you were a woman then I wouldn't be attracted to you.. and you would fall over because you would be able to balance...

Answer 4

Yes, and well.

In many cases of severe damage or disease, the rectum and/or colon must be removed, and they are replaced by a stoma(hole, or orifice) in the abdominal wall.

Know that when living without rectum and no stoma replacement, you probably have severe bowel incontinence, and will always be dependent on knowing where the bathrooms are. This makes life without a rectum a little more complicated.

Answer 5

Yes, you can have a colostomi instead. That incl the colon but not the anus.
