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.

Hi Agwedd55,
Hi Agwedd55,
The symptoms you describe are not unusual with urinary tract infections, especially as we get older. I saw that all the time when I worked in the nursing homes.
Completely emptying your bladder is what is going help prevent future bladder infections. Christine talks about this in her book Saving the Whole Woman. You need to to either lean forward slightly off the toilet seat which gets you in better position for complete emptying, or go on all fours in the shower or over a basin.
Do you have Christine's book? It would be a great investment that will let you know what your body is actually going through and what you can do about it to make it better, and help you manage your prolapse.
Oops, I see in your other post that you do have the book. Go to the self care section that starts on page 119. Here you will see pictures of emptying bladder and other important information.

pumping
I think folks think I'm cuckoo, but pumping works great for me to empty my bladder...I used it when I had uterine prolapse, and then, after hysterectomy, bladder prolapse. I take some toilet paper, and after my urine stream stops, I press it on my clitoris, It releases a big stream of urine. I do it 2 or 3 times until each new stream stops. I have been doing this for years...it works great. Does anyone else do it? I can't believe I'm the only one it would work for.
