I'm tagging fellow members like @bobette1 @ljchicago @sillywabbit @jeanadair123 @annie7837 @angie0374 @crissyd @westnp1 @stolisnc30 @cjp930 @misstrouble @catlove30 who had treatment for vulvar cancer including radiation to share their late side effects with you @andwho.
Andwho, I understand that you've developed hemorrhoids, possibly polyps and proctitis a year after radiation. You might also be interested in this related discussion:

Have you talked to your doctor about these late side effects and possible treatment? There are treatment options.

I did, in fact, have vulva cancer. However, I never had any radiation or
treatments of any kind. My doctor was able to remove it all. This was over
five years ago and I have had no problems since then.
I haven't had any side effects from radiation ::knock on wood:: I am sorry
she is experiencing issues.

Can rectum prolapse be a side effect of pelvic radiation? I had radiation for vulvar cancer over 1 year ago. Any info would be helpful. Oncologists & radiologists don’t prepare you for any side effects!

I have not had any of these symptoms. Everything else but not this.
