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.

Marlajone, this sounds to me
Marlajone, this sounds to me like the stool was getting 'stuck' in the pocket that your rectocele forms. Sometimes, splinting is required to pass a stool completely. Splinting is downward pressure on the vagina, which is what you did the second time. It is pushing on that bulge during a bowel movement so the stool can easily come out instead of getting stuck. Somebody bust me if I am wrong, but I experienced this same feeling for months before I knew I had a rectocele. It is quite uncomfortable! But I wouldn't worry, just splint if you sit down to go and nothin comes out. My doc told me to use two (washed) fingers inserted a couple inches into the vagina and press down, toward the floor, firmly yet not to hard. I hope this gives you some peace of mind! If this makes little sense feel free to ask more questions!
