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 too did not have insurance at the time I discovered my prolapses and that, for me, has proved to be divine intervention. I too would have been pushing my way to the front of the line to "get this fixed", in the unenlighted belief that surgery is a cure-all. Get ready to read girl, there is lots to learn ;-) and hopefully by the time you have waded through it all you will have decided to give this a go. Please read everything Christine has to say about prolapses and surgery. That is the place to start and watch the videos. Sometimes women come to the site and start in the forum, which is not necessarily bad, it's just they miss some of the finer points that this work entails. I am glad you found your way here and hopefully you will find that you can manage your prolapse quite fine without surgery.
If memory serves (I am postmeno), vaginal tissue starts swelling around period time anyway and then add the urethrocele to the mix... As long as this is not painful or causing other issues, I wonder if it might just be the way of it: lubricate well, alter sexual positions, etc.
As to the WHY of it, who knows. On the list of what causes prolapses I could check them all, as can most of us. As to BV, I've not had personel experience with it so cannot comment. Just wanted to say, Hello and welcome.

Hi, Anxious
Did you find the article? Just in case you didn't, here's a road map. Click on the "Resources" tab on the top of the page. Then choose Whole Woman's Village Library in the center column of the page that comes up. On the next page in the left column under "articles" choose Lanny Goodman's article. Then click on the title on the final page that comes up and it will download. You're looking for "A Husband's Guide to Prolapse". It is a good article and having your husband understand what's up and being supportive will help you so much. It will also help him if he's worried about not having insurance or has a hard time trusting anything other than the dominant medical paradigm. Best wishes to you both.
