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.

incontinence
The level of incontinence you describe is very common in the post-hysterectomy population, for which there are no easy answers. Such incontinence is rare in a woman who has her uterus, because the way in which the mature bladder naturally settles out is to bend toward the back, actually obstructing urine flow. Far more women who have a uterus eventually experience urine retention (and chronic UTIs) rather than frank incontinence, although that reality is not portrayed accurately in popular medical literature.
If your friend does have her uterus, the only reasonable response is to slowly and methodically work to draw the organs and their channels into a more natural alignment, which is what the posture and exercises are all about. WW posture alone is rarely enough to reverse significant prolapse in an older woman whose fascia is stretched out like a wool sweater. So we also spend a few minutes a day, preferably in the morning, exercising in the WW way.
