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.

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,

hello you too
: ) hello. I think you might be on a different time zone like I am?
Anyhow, I totally get your not wanting to be poked and prodded. I, my mirror (when at 6 weeks pp I still felt really odd down there and had to see why) and google are what diagnosed me, then I simply verbally confirmed things with my mwife, but wouldnt let her look. Had already found ww and knew that was going to be my way, so...
here's a hug for your wobbly moments... (()) Thanks you too, for being here...

Welcome Octaviel and belatedly Squeak
Hey Octaviel and Squeak and other new POP discoverers,
Having a look in the mirror requires more bravery than pulling out a big splinter. Congratulations to both of you for being brave and and overcoming the fear of your own body. (elephant stamps all round!)
Having had a good look, I would now encourage both of you to not look again for at least a week, then extend that time to only once a month. No cheating. Having a look can be a bit addictive, but it is not helpful if done too often because the changes happen so gradually. It can be really dispiriting if done too often because you won't have see much improvement over a week. Just get on with getting your posture, clothing, working spaces, food and exercise done and let your bodies do their recovering unobserved. Frequent peeking (aka 'checkarama') doesn't make it get better any quicker!
A good substitute for checkerama is noting when you do and don't experience any symptoms in your vulval area while you are going about your day. Diary it every few days if you must, so you can see the progress later on.
I am not saying that you shouldn't have a feel with your fingers. That is sometimes quite a useful exercise so you can associate a sensation with what you feel with your fingers in different bodily positions. eg feel from the front with pelvis tilted back then feel from the back in WW posture, and you will literally feel your bladder sliding forwards when you get into WW posture. That's what I call useful!!
Bye for now.
Louise
