Hundreds of thousands of women in Nepal live with a prolapsed uterus and nobody cares.

Body: 

When you think our problem is to much to bear think of these poor women...

The scale of the suffering is enormous-we are talking of 600,000 women and girls."

...no one has stepped forward to help the women,

I don't know what I did wrong... these links should be in the original post. Maybe someone can fix this....

Thanks so much for posting these, Callie. I’m going to be gone for the next few days, but I ask all our members to read the articles critically...from the wholewoman perspective. There is much between the lines. xC.

I wrote to the editor about the risks and permanent damage from surgery and that it is not a "cure" as I once thought too. I shared some of the things I have learned on here and the difference they have made in my life and many others. I know this message will reach the women of Nepal,
and those who are trying to help them.

I gave the editor this link, and asked if she could pass it on to those who work with the women of Nepal.

I thank Christine for bringing us (meaning those of us here at WW) out of this third world mentality.
...Now if only our doctors could get it.

it was really interesting to read what they think are the "causes" or contributing factors to POP. I thought it was especially thought provoking that they attribute some cases to sex -months after birth. I don't mean to be insensitive and I do believe it is a problem that needs addressing- I just think there was some propaganda in the article.
