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.

Welcome Grape4birth
I suggest that you download Christine Kent's article on Lichen Sclerosus, from http://www.wholewoman.com/newpages/landing/LS/LS-Report.pdf. This will probably answer many of your questions much better than I could answer them. If you would like to follow through and learn more, then the new video will give you a lot more you can do on a whole body basis.
On the nursing and oestrogen question I think you will find that once your menstrual cycle has returned your oestrogen levels will return to normal, and you will have a moister vagina and vulva in the first half of the cycle, followed by being drier in the second half of the cycle when oestrogen is lower. I wouldn't think weaning will change that much. Your baby is getting and will continue to get so much benefit from nursing I would not think it a sensible trial to do to see if your LS resolves. Your body has plenty of oestrogen. You may be able to excrete more of the inflammatory oestrogen metabolites if you increase phytooestrogens in your diet. These are very weak oestrogens that fasten onto the beta oestrogen receptors in the vulva, like cars tie up parking spots. Therefore the inflammatory metabolites just have to keep driving around and around looking for a parking spot, and eventually get to the kidneys, where they are filtered out and leave the body in urine, resulting in less inflammation. That's the basis of the red clover story.

Thank you both. The analogy
Thank you both. The analogy helped make sense of the estrogen questions. I have the article and I will look into the video - definitely interested. And look forward to sharing the information.

Hi Restorehealth - I think
Hi Restorehealth - I think that you would love Christine's DVD on vulva-vaginal health......she has assembled a great deal of knowledge and wisdom on how we can balance our hormones naturally throughout life. And of course, use the search boxes on this forum and on the blog page, to look for articles and discussions using keywords. - Surviving
