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!

Hi Writerladys
Re curls, "Are they harmful even if you don't flatten the back, or just nor worth doing at all?"
If you feel any pressure they are bad. If your pelvis tips back and your back becomes c-shaped when you do them you are straightening out your vagina and turning it into a slippery slide that has no angles or bends to redirect intraabdominal forces.
You are doing the same exercise by doing leg lifts forwards, and the same backwards, at a barre or free standing. You can also do leg lifts with a Captain's Chair at the gym, or with a couple of handles hung high on a wall. Hold on with your hands, facing away from the wall, and do bent knee leg raises.
The difference is that you can use proper WW posture with both the methods, in vertical stance, in a way that you cannot, while lying down.
In WW posture your abdominal muscles are stretched out to their functional length all the time, so they get a workout with everyday activities, but if you want more, I suggest that you go for the vertical leg lifts, rather than the lying down curls.

Thanks! This helps me to decide which moves to keep doing and which to scrap.
