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.

I won't take Cipro ever ever ever
Federal regulators are ordering new warnings on Cipro and similar antibiotics because of increased risk of tendinitis and tendon rupture. (The absolute last thing you need is to take a med that messes with connective tissue!!!!)
The new warnings apply to fluoroquinolones, a class of antibiotics that includes the popular drug Cipro. The FDA has told companies that the drugs must now carry "black box" warnings alerting doctors and patients that the drugs can increase risk of tendinitis and tendon rupture in some patients.
Also, I've had success treating bladder infections with d-manose, garlic, probiotic, cranberry juice and lots of water (I mean enough to pee clear!) and vitamin C. Keep it up after the infection is gone for a good long time (14 days at least). Pee on hands and knees every time.
Also, avoid all sugar (even fruit except cranberry and blueberry) and other bladder irritants like coffee.
and feel better! sorry you are dealing with this right now. I know it sucks.

UTI pain / Zena
Dear Zena,
When I have had the first signs of a UTI, usually shooting pain on urination, or urethra discomfort, I take Citravescent or Ural here in Australia. It is a powder that you drink just after it is added to water while it is fizzing. This helps with the pain while urinating, until further action can be taken if necessary.
Do what Alemama suggests with peeing on all fours as that will clear the bladder of residual urine.
Best wishes

Your list of natural things
Your list of natural things to use for bladder infections is very helpful, alemama. I might also mention the pineapple juice mentioned in another post.
Thanks for mentioning the need for enough water to 'pee clear'.
I'm trying cinnamon in my daily smoothie -- which is supposed to help. Avoiding sugars and caffeine is proving helpful too.

P.S. I haven't been following this regime for 14 days yet, so maybe I'll be able to report success soon
