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.

prolapse and urination
Hi Ivonrush,
Sounds like your vaginal passage and symptoms feel a bit different recently and very understandably this has made you feel a bit anxious.
I think your idea of monitoring how things are to see if there is a pattern, possibly linked to your mentrual cycle is a very good idea. It may be that your vaginal passageway and vulve are a little more swollen prior to menstruation. If so, ths would be helpful to know so you know that that's a normal part of the cycle for you.
Also from what I've heard and experienced, prolapse symptoms can change for better and for worse for all sorts of reasons. For example, I know if I sit too long at my computer and don't do enough appropriate exercise and WW posture, then my symptoms get worse and when I do things like WW exercise, posture, swimming, walking, not sitting too long etc. then my prolapse gets worse. As I understand it prolapse symptoms can vary throughout the day.
Whatever is going on, it's good to know there are things you can do which have been tried and tested and will almost certainly help, whatever your symptoms. Things such as maintaining WW posture as much as possible, getting adequate WW exercise, contact with people and friends, sunlight, good diet which reduces/eliminates constipation, drinking warm water when you're thirsty, not straining on the loo - leaning forward and taking the weight off the toilet seat if possible....
Good luck - and if you do find a pattern related to prolapse symptoms and menstrual cycle, I'd be very interested to hear about it.
Best wishes, wholewomanuk

Yes, I got more anxious as it
Yes, I got more anxious as it all seems as an unexpected set back. I ended my job contract (that was rather challenging) one week ago and I expected that I would feel just great. And I don't...
I was thinking today that when still at work, I used to walk there and back (around 20 minutes). But now I hardly walk. I am thinking of getting back to walking...
I think everything just changed since I am at home. Maybe I just need to adapt to this change...
The symptoms are bit different this time and somehow I cannot make it right...getting a bit impatient and despaired...
I just wish I will get my period soon, but I cannot predict it as before. :( I know it is close, as my breast is really tender...

These boots are made for walking
... so start walking! Nice, long, unhurried strides. You have no trains to catch. This is a new stage for you. You can adapt.
