When I first “cracked the code” on stabilizing and reversing prolapse, and wrote and published Saving the Whole Woman, I set up this forum. While I had finally gotten my own severe uterine prolapse under control with the knowledge I had gained, I didn’t actually know if I could teach other women to do for themselves what I had done for my condition.
So I just started teaching women on this forum. Within weeks, the women started writing back, “It’s working! I can feel the difference!”
From that moment on, the forum became the hub of the Whole Woman Community. Unfortunately, spammers also discovered the forum, along with the thousands of women we had been helping. The level of spamming became so intolerable and time-consuming, we regretfully took the forum down.
Technology never sleeps, however, and we have better tools today for controlling spam than we did just a few years ago. So I am very excited and pleased to bring the forum back online.

Please review and agree to the disclaimer and the forum rules. Our moderators will remove any posts that are promotional or otherwise fail to meet our guidelines and will block repeat offenders.
Remember, the forum is here for two reasons. First, to get your questions answered by other women who have knowledge and experience to share. Second, it is the place to share your results and successes. Your stories will help other women learn that Whole Woman is what they need.
Whether you’re an old friend or a new acquaintance, welcome! The Whole Woman forum is a place where you can make a difference in your own life and the lives of thousands of women around the world!
Best wishes,

personal stories forum
Hi Gardengirl,
Thanks for bringing this up. Yes, the original intention for that forum was for members established in the WW methods to post their experience and results with the work. Louise and I moved post after post until we sort of gave up. I think perhaps if we change the wording (it has already been changed at least once) in the header, maybe more people will understand the purpose of that forum.
:) Christine

personal stories thoughts
I was wondering if i shared with you a user's experience with the Whole woman web page, if that might help understand why some newbies end up posting their personal story on the personal stories site.
If I click on "forms" on the left side of my screen, it takes me to a page with explanations of the forum type. That is fine as "personal stories" tells me it is for experienced whole woman users. Provided a user takes the time to read the blurb.
If I click on "create content", I end up with a drop down menu to choose the relevant forum and "personal stories" is listed with the others with no explanation. Changing the name may help.
Perhaps the use of it by newbies, highlights a need that being able to tell ones personal story at the beginning of this journey, is what woman want and a title that says "personal story" fits the bill.
Just a thought.

Personal stories
Hi Gardengirl and all the other lovely ladies
(I am also rural Oz, but I have wireless. I call it my microfibre connection!) ;-)
Oh, good grief! I didn't realise we had so many topics in the Members' Personal Stories Forum that belong elsewhere. That definitely means that the Forum is not correctly named. I need to sleep on it and figure out a new name for it, then move the topics that belong in other Forums.
Otherwise there is little point in having a Forum which has a series of Wholewoman biographies where Members can read a woman's whole prolapse story from beginning to end, as inspiration and evidence that WW works.
Tomorrow. I am too stuffed now. Zzzzzz.
Please put on your collective thinking caps and help me come up with a name that better reflects its purpose.
Louise

Maybe call it "success stories?" That's what they seem to be :-)

Thankyou, Bad_Mirror. You must have benefitted from my sleep more than I did.
Do we have any other bids? Any extra words needed?
