A recto-cystocele device (200) addresses rectocele and cystocele. The device (200) generally comprise a handle (206) and a paddle (204) that are distinguished from one another by a bend (208) in the recto-cystocele device (200) which forms essentially an L-shaped unit, the bend (208) possessing a sufficient radius to avoid contact with a pelvic region (1008) of the woman and the recto-cystocele device (200). The device (200) further comprises an expandable sheath (702) located on the paddle (204) that after being inserted in a vagina of the woman and is expanded therein is in contact with at least an upper portion of the vagina (103) that includes a posterior fornix of the vagina (109) and a lower portion of the vagina (106) that does not include the posterior fornix. The handle (206), which does not go into the vagina, is adapted to be manually manipulated by the woman.
