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.

Mixed up microflora?
Hi Octaviel
I find that sometimes my body just gets out of balance. Irritable bladder that is not menstrually related and not a UTI has to be caused by something. At times like this a month long course of good quality probiotic by mouth cleans up lots of things. Getting some good microflora into your body will allow your body to clean itself up. I think it is often to do with pH balance. You may never actually find the initial cause. No new lovers on the scene? ;-)
If that doesn't work within a couple of weeks then you can look further, but at least you are then starting from a steady base.

Soreness & Inflammation
Octaviel,
Misery loves company! I have something similar.
I have a ten-year old prolapsed vaginal vault and a cystocele which has "progressed" since November. I got back from a holiday South swimming in the sea (polluted?) with what I thought was a bladder infection, but nothing showed up in two sets of blood tests and urine tests. I went back on my local estrogen pills twice a week and after a lot of cranberry juice, it slowly cleared up.
Now the sore inflamed burning feeling near my urethra and in my vagina has returned. A warm bath eases that pain which you described so well. (Thanks!)
I did laps this morning in the pool and went on a hour long walk with friends & felt fine, but this evening I am a misery.
I believe that bladder (Well, my friend keeps telling me!) infections can be very dangerous if they go untreated, so I might whine to my GP again for more tests. I am having no trouble holding my urine (pee!)
I am waiting for a referral to see a uro-gynecologist because I am post complete hysterectomy. My prognosis is different from yours but we are friends in misery!
