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.

not a death sentence
How old are you, Lou? LS is just an inflammatory process resulting from natural hormonal states that in some of us become too far out of balance. I feel quite certain we will know much more about LS before long. Medical treatment of LS is gothic. In the meantime, I’ve found the root “maca” to be quite helpful. It’s essential that you calm your body way down. Watch your caffeine intake - chocolate fans the fires of LS - and your stress levels. Kiki is finding neem oil helpful.

LS
HI Lou,
I am sorry to hear what you are going through. LS is a tough one, but I'm having a lot of faith that we'll find a way through this.
I don't have time for my whole story right now but...
Christine is right--I'm finding Neem oil very helpful for keeping the skin happy, less itchy, and not inflamed. I've had no vulval fissures since i started using it, and anal fissures heal much faster. I'm also using a barrier cream on top during the day as when i walk (which i do A LOT) i get itchy. It's not ideal as not all natural, but I'm looking at is as very temporary. but between the two, if i use them regularly, i feel much better.
remember the pictures are worse case...it's scary, but not a lot of women actually get to that point.
I've found EFT very helpful for the emotions around this--can post more about it or google Emotional Freedom Technique. it's really calmed me down, along with copious amounts of rescue remedy.
very imp't as stress definately makes this worse. I was so stressed at work today and just felt the itch starting up.
came home, calmed down, itch calmed...
also have you had a read through Christine's LS site? lots of suggestions of things people are trying. No answers yet, but we'll get there!!!

Topic moved
Hi Lou
Hope you don't mind, but I moved your topic to the Pelvic Health Forum. Personal Stories Forum is for longer standing members to write their whole story for the benefit of others.
Cheers
Louise
