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.

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!

I haven't heard of that one
I haven't heard of that one - perhaps trimosan is sold more here. I did notice the Milex site has been taken down. There are many comments on other boards that echo our member Amy's comment that it causes a cottage cheese-type discharge. Hope you toss it away for good.

Aci-gel
I think you're right. The pharmaceutical companies seem to have particular markets for particular products. This one is made by Janssen-Cilag, offices in Auckland, NZ and near Sydney (part of Johnson and Johnson). They seem to operate in Europe, Central America and South-east Asia.
I am sure, though that Trimosan and Acigel are not the only products that are for use with pessaries. I googled Hydroxyquinoline sulphate and found it in a number of products. Another is an acne treatment. Rule 1, read the label, whatever you use. It may be that there are much more dangerous products out there. It is hard to say. You can't know about everything, but it doewn't hurt to investigate.
Cheers

Trimosan and related products
I have stopped using the Trimosan product and instead use the gel made from activated water (Miracle ll). It is supposed to be antibacterial and though it leans more toward alkaline it has been satisfactory. As long a pelvic health is good I don't expect a problem. I do remove the pessary twice a week. I no longer have the cheesy discharge I noticed while using the the commercial product. I hope to learn more about other preparations in case I may need better later.
I am really pleased with the pessary after a couple of months use. It feels good to have things in place. When I think how close I came to surgery, which was the advice I was getting from all I spoke to, I shudder and heave a sigh.
