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.

Congrats ananda! This is a
Congrats ananda! This is a great post, and you have touched on all the reasons why some women are better candidates to have pessary success than others. Looks like all the stars were aligned in your case! Wish you continued success, but please don't let wearing the pessary get you "out of touch" with your symptoms which might make you a teeny bit less posture-conscious as you go about your day. It won't be enough just to continue the exercises; you still need to guard your lumbar curve all the time. Wishing you the best! - Surviving

thanks Surviving 60
Yup - I was thinking about that. I had some back issues a few years ago & the PT also encouraged consciousness about the natural female curve - so I have several reasons to be vigilant. Here's an amazing (or not so amazing) thing - I was sitting on the couch really slumping and being lazy & my back started to hurt like crazy. Was going to get up to take an aspirin, but first I sat into the posture. Away went the back ache - instantly!!! Anyway thanks for the reminder. I will keep up the work.
Love to you & all of us learning to live with this.

How is it now?
I'd love a follow-up on your pessary. Are you still using it, have you made any changes, did it cause any ititation and how did you manage. I have a uterine prolapse also. Thanks for your story.

who is this awesome doc?
Hello,
Can you tell me the name of this doctor and the location? I am having a hard time finding a good person to work with on the medical end. I am rhode island but at this point I would be willing to travel far for the right person.
