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 find the posture helps my
I find the posture helps my cyctocele pull up and out of the way but the pressure on my perrineum is very annoying sometimes especially if i stand on my feet for a long period of time I find resting in the afternoon a help but I feel i'm young at 59 for this repetition daily, i haven't been doing the posture long and I feel it has helped me with the other (bladder) Christine did say rest excercise and heal and this is what i'm trying to do but I would agree rectocele's are really the worst annoying thing and it drags me down, i only got symptons about 6 weeks ago

unfortunately the posture
unfortunately the posture has not helped my rectocele so far. I have been doing it for over a year and it definitely helped my cystocele but I have constant pressure from the rectocele. I am pregnant now and it is even worse. I have heard that diet changes really help rectoceles but so far no changes have helped me. I have to wear the v2 supporter a lot but it feels too tight when I sit so it is a pain to take on and off. However it is the only thing that gives me some relief when I am on my feet. I would highly recommend it. I tried the sponge too and it didn't work. I am just about willing to try anything other than surgery! I know how you feel.

heres something to try
I too just started getting rectal pressure and even pain. One day it was so bad I couldn't function. I researched it on this site and read that Christine suggested an exercise. If you get down on all fours and lift your leg back toward the ceiling for 20 reps on each leg 1 to 2 times a day it helps alot. I have been doing that and my pressure and pain went away. Hopefully for good. But boy do I feel better. The cystocele is still a bother but the rectal pain stopped.
Hope this helps.
