“…Krissi et al reported one patient with vaginal wind who underwent a posterior repair and later, a Fenton operation, but with no improvement [ 2 ]. Renckens and Klinkert described another patient who underwent a first colpoperineorrhaphy and a second surgery for narrowing the compartment and widening the vaginal diameter in the midvaginal segment but in whom the surgeries failed to alleviate the symptoms [ 5 ]. In addition, physical therapy of the pelvic floor has been ineffective [ 2 , 7 , 11 , 27 ].…”

“…It is not uncommon for women to experience vaginal wind, which is an underrated symptom [ 3 , 4 ]. Although the vagina air is very similar to anal exhaust, and the gas is usually harmless and odorless, the sound of the vaginal exhaust can be embarrassing and distressing for women with the condition and can even lead to social isolation [ 5 , 6 ]. Slieker-ten Hove et al reported that in the general population of women aged 14–85 years, the incidence of vaginal wind was 12.8% [ 3 ].…”

Introduction and hypothesis The pathogenesis of vaginal wind remains unclear. This study was aimed at assessing the association between functional constipation and vaginal wind in women at 6 weeks postpartum. Methods This is a multicenter cross-sectional study. We collected data, such as baseline demographic, clinical characteristics, pelvic organ prolapse quantification score. and surface electromyography parameters of pelvic floor muscles, of women at 6 weeks postpartum who visited the postpartum rehabilitation clinic between May 2022 and September 2022. The cohort data were from women who visited the postpartum rehabilitation clinic of the First Affiliated Hospital of Gannan Medical University and the Women and Children's Health Care Hospital of Yudu County. Follow-up for the control and study cohorts was conducted until 6 weeks postpartum. Results Among the 377 women, 101 (26.79%) reported vaginal wind. Multivariate regression analysis showed that postpartum women with functional constipation were at a higher risk for vaginal wind than women without functional constipation (odds ratio [OR], 2.41). The results remained stable across the propensity score analyses (OR, 1.86–2.30). In addition, we found age, body mass index, mode of delivery, changes in the anatomical location of Bp points, urinary incontinence, pelvic floor muscle strength, and birth weight of the neonate were not associated with increased odds of vaginal wind in women at 6 weeks postpartum. Conclusions Vaginal wind is common among women at 6 weeks postpartum and is associated with functional constipation. Functional constipation may serve as a reference for the pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of vaginal wind.

“…Cette efficacité du pessaire est aussi retrouvée lors de « case report » (31). Ces pessaires, sont parfois astucieusement adaptés à un simple cathéter ouvert dont l'extrémité distale est à la vulve permettant une évacuation permanente des GV (32). Le port de tampons intravaginaux a pu être aussi préconisé (33).…”
