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.

yoga
I don’t see a problem with most of these. Beyond the obtuse boat pose, which is very stressful, asanas like triangle and warrior create a bit of instability in terms of pelvic organ support. You are your own best judge. My advice is to try to always keep the lumbar curve, which is of course flattened in a forward bend, but because of the acute angle of the torso to legs, the organs are in supported positions.

Tweaking yoga poses
I am new to this whole prolapse "situation" and also to the STWW method of managing it. However, I do want to comment about yoga in case this helps. I've done yoga for years and am now experimenting with ways to do it without aggravating prolapse. This is a work in progress, but I'm thinking that there are a lot of poses that can be done comfortably if we just stick our butts out a little farther than the instructor might like, while also lifting breasts up and being sure not to suck in the tummy. In other words, inserting WW posture into the existing yoga pose. It may not be the way the pose was exactly meant to be done, but I don't see why it would be unsafe. Of course, in some poses, such as triangle, this wouldn't be possible, but it could be done in, say, warrior poses, chair pose, etc.
