Nature's Platform and squatting

Body: 

After much consideration and research on the subject, I think we're going to purchase a nature's platform device for squatting. I have found that not sitting on the toilet seat has helped with my symptoms, and that squatting for bowel movements facilitates their ease. While I will probably still half-squat to urinate, I think it will be useful to have.

For any not familiar with Nature's platform, I encourage you go go to their website (naturesplatform.com) and read all the great info on there as to the health benefits. I'm not trying to promote their product, just to share with you my experience and conclusions.

Thanks for the info. I think that's a great choice. I feel very lucky that I'm so little (4'11 and 85lbs) and can quite easily and comfortibly squat on my own toilet. I think squatting makes a huge difference in pelvic health! I wish more people were not so opposed to the idea and would realize all of the benefits of squatting in our American culture.

I'm curious to know how squatting has affected your prolapse symptoms?
