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'm so sorry for your friend
I'm so sorry for your friend's loss. Prayers being said for your and their families.
A few weeks ago I went to doctor due to my cystocele becoming untolerable. The doctor told me that if I had surgery I won't be able to lift ever and that will not work with my lifestyle. I'm scheduled to be fitted for pessary tommorow.
I have found this site in the time since last appointment. I have already ordered some things but haven't received them yet. I am eagerly awaiting their arrival.
I'm glad you posted this to show how dangerous surgery can be.

How great to hear from you, thanks for sharing this very scary story. It's a grim reminder that, apart from pelvic "repairs" being the worst possible way to address prolapse, ANY surgery carries significant risks. Surgery has its place, at those times when the risks of surgery are worth taking. A "bladder tuck" - how sad this bill of goods was sold to yet another uninformed woman. Thanks so much for sharing and please do stop in more often, we miss you (and we quote you) so much!!! - Surviving

Hi Again from Cleo
I just called in to say hello. I've had surgery to remove a bowel tumour but I feel Ok now. I still have a rectocele but it doesn't worry me now. Only the cancer I had does and I hope it doesn't come back. I had surgery as I collapsed but I'm ok now. I have had no bleeding or pain so if I hadn't gone to hospital I might have been worse off. I am scared of hospitals and surgery. I panic. Cancer is a silent disease I suppose. Always check with a doctor if you feel ill.
