How long till it works!?

Body: 

My cervix is 1cm out of vaginal entrance. If I follow your workout 3 times a week and wholewoman posture to the letter how long before I expect to see improvement? What sort of improvement can I expect? Feeling discouraged :(

Hi Sue

It can be a bit hit and miss at first, particularly until you work out what is holding you back from progress. I don't mean to sound like a motivational programme, but sometimes there are things happening in our bodies that literally stop us from relaxing into WW posture. eg I have a lot of upper back and neck stiffness that has effects lowers down, so I am up for a really deep massage this week to try and get some more flexibility into my spine, though my POPs aren't too bad.

Remember before, that we talked about constipation, clothing style and our environment adn how we use the body in it, as well as posture? How are you going with these other factors? Have you given the posture as you understand it a good try yet? I am hesitant about having a stab at how long it will take. The point is that our anatomy says it will work, unless there is something else playing with our anatomy. That's why I am asking about the other things.

How is the adenomyosis? An organ that is bigger than it would normally be will certainly affect your POPs, because it extends backwards and over the vagina further than a normal sized uterus. Then it becomes a centre of gravity issue, that will tip it over the back edge into your vagina until your uterus shrinks again.

Thanks very much for your thoughts on this, Louise. Its given me things to think about. I have a bad back as well, mainly lower back which makes my hamstring muscles very tight. Saying that however, I do seem to still have a good curve in my lower back. I try to do the mackenzie back arch on the floor everyday to help with back pain.

I think I still have adenomyosis judging by my heavy painful periods. Oh well!
