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.

Whether you’re an old friend or a new acquaintance, welcome! The Whole Woman forum is a place where you can make a difference in your own life and the lives of thousands of women around the world!

donut pessary
Hi Oyster,
The pessary is pushing your bladder into a position where there is less angle between bladder and urethra, therefore urine has a much easier escape route. I had the same issue with the ring pessary and could not wear it to run, etc.
There is also some question whether holding open a normally tightly shut vagina with a large pessary leads to worsening of pressure/prolapsing of front and back walls.
I doubt the incontinence will subside, but in any case only you can be the best judge so keep it in as long as you can tolerate the symptoms it causes.
