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 had it
For a while when my prolapse "happened" i.e. fell low enough to see-It felt just like menstrual cramps, but after a few weeks it went away.

no way
pain that severe is not normal for anyone prolapse or not. I hope it gets better soon. Definitely find someone to see-
Maybe it is intestinal cramping and not related to prolapse at all???
Does it ever get better?

Yeah I don't think the pain
Yeah I don't think the pain is normal. I think its something else.
You know it feels like a bladder infection. I have only had one of those once in my life and I remember it feeling like menstrual cramps.
When I saw the gyno last week, (that is when I was told I had a rectocele) I gave a urine sample and then the nurse told me before I left she couldn't give me the results as its has to be sent to a lab for an analyze that they can't do.
Then 4 days later I haven't heard from them and so I call them and I sorta felt like they lost my sample. The nurse said it came back negative but I just got the feeling she didn't really have the report.
Well anyway all day I have been pounding down the cranberry juice and tonight I feel a little better.
I actually felt well enough to give the husband and bedroom a try. I am so happy there was no pain, I actually cried afterwards.
I thought for sure I'd have to give up sex forever.
I wonder why I don't have that horrible pain that I had which prompted me to see the doc in the first place. The prolaspe is still there. Anyone have any thoughts on that?

Well maybe what you went
Well maybe what you went through is how its going for me. I feel better tonight. I drank tons of cranberry juice cause I felt like it might be a bladder infection.
I am not completely pain free right now, but its oh so much better.
I do appreciate you both for posting your thoughts. It helps to have someone to bounce stuff off and like I said I can't find anything anywhere that talks about cramping with these prolapses.
So I am thinking its not normal. I 'll tell ya its scary to think that I might have something else going on...but I think I do.
I wish I could find a good women doctor.
Thank you for your help!

feeling better
Callie I am so glad you are feeling better. I didn't even consider infection = but now that you mention it, the one bladder infection I had gave me back cramps.
congratulations on you brave attempt at reconnecting with your dh.

The cramps are gone!
Thank you all for posting!
Well all that cramping is gone. I am still drinking the cranberry juice though.
It was just weird timing I got a rectocele and a bladder infection at the same time.
This is my second bladder infec.- ever in my life, I just get menstrual like cramps, no burning or frequency problem.
I know its not my period cause I haven't had one for 15 years!
The last time I had this I remember telling the gyno, I think my body is trying to have a period and I wouldn't be convinced other wise, so he did an ultrasound (this was 2 years ago) and nope no lining and the ovaries were the size of a dot. So yeah I was embarrassed. LOL
