An intravaginal device for the control of stool passage of a female user, the device comprising: an intravaginal stabilizing body extending in a longitudinal direction and in a lateral direction that is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, the stabilizing body having a laterally narrower portion and a laterally wider portion along a length of the stabilizing body; and an expandable member supported by the stabilizing body in a manner such that a greatest lateral extent of the expandable member is positioned along the laterally narrower portion of the stabilizing body, the expandable member having an expanded state and a retracted state, wherein the stabilizing body is sized and configured to fit entirely within a vaginal cavity of the user with the longitudinal extent of the stabilizing body extending substantially along a length of the vaginal cavity to hold the expandable member in contact with the user's recto-vaginal septum to control the passage of stool through a rectum of the user.
