Serre stick

Body: 

I am wondering if anyone has experience with this product? I just purchased one and am having huge relief from prolapse symptoms. My cystocele was varying from mildly annoying to oh my I am so uncomfortable but so far, this product is keeping it out of sight. I will still work on posture and strength but am wondering who else has tried this.

Hi Beth - I'm not sure what this has to do with pelvic organ support (recommend reading "Saving the Whole Woman") but if you feel the ingredients are safe, be my guest. It does kind of miss the point when it comes to prolapse. - Surviving

Ok, so the premise is that you stick this wand in your vagina and the herbals are absorbed into the vaginal tissue causing tightness that is suppose to last for 3-5 days and give your man greater pleasure.
Hmmm..... So have to wonder if the herbals aren't just making the vaginal tissue swell rather than any tightening of vaginal walls. It has to be rinsed out thoroughly, and one husband said it tasted awful.
Mostly, my question is: What does this have to do with prolapse management? With Christine's methods the organs are pulled into the lower belly which also pulls and flattens the vagina with it.
I would rather have a naturally flattened vagina over a artificially swollen one. Sorry, just my opinion
here.
There are so many fly by night get rich quick schemes out there. I wouldn't start buying into them too quickly without some real research.
Yes, whole woman takes work and time, but it is a lifetime of work that doesn't need to be hurried.
In my mind, it is the real deal.

Ah, yes, that makes sense AG. A temporary swelling of the vaginal tissues could indeed have the effect of making the prolapse symptoms temporarily less noticeable. Depending on the ingredients, possibly less dangerous in the long run than the hormones that some doctors prescribe to thicken up the tissues in search of the same symptom-masking results. But as AG says - this isn't prolapse management. - Surviving

It also doesn't seem so good to be rinsing out the vagina on a regular basis. Remember the days of douching for vaginal cleanliness? Correct me if I am wrong, but doesn't that wash away the natural bacteria that the vagina is suppose retain for good vaginal health?

Yep, I remember that craze, and I did plenty of it...... - Surviving

I am pretty much afraid to do much of anything since having a hysterectomy, so I think it would be dangerous for me. I've been there done that with Dr. prescribed hormone cream which caused an allergic reaction, so this would definitely be out. - Coping
