Hi doctors, can you tell me what is it like to have a j-pouch?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
J pouch : This is not a simple answer, you should speak with a colorectal surgeon, but typically you have more frequent bowel movements a day - ranges at best from 3-5 to 10 - 15 times a day. You can have pouchitis, bacterial overgrowth, and don't forget about the small but real risks of sexual dysfunction and incontinence from surgery.
