Disgusted!

am having bowel movement "oozing" all day long. I don't feel it happening.  The only indication is when I get up -- the 'pad' I'm wearing is suddenly stuck to my bottom.  

Having to wear a pad all day, every day, and am post-menopause is irritating as hell!

This started about 2 months ago.   What's up?

Welcome to the gastroenterology community!  I would recommend seeing a gastroenterologist first before a colorectal surgeon.  You want to figure out the cause of the problem before you do any surgery.

Fecal incontinence CAN be repaired often. It has many causes. A colorectal surgeon is the best bet to 'fix' it.
