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.

Hope you can get yourself off the bladder medications and Estrace - these are decidedly NOT what your body needs, now or ever. Glad you have found us here....Christine is the voice of reason in an insane world. - Surviving

Welcome
Hello just wanted to say welcome and share my thoughts, I came to the site about 7-8 months after my baby boy, I am from the UK and was also told I didn't have a prolapse and just laxing of the vaginal walls which apparently you should expect! No one told me. It's hard to explain how you feel and alternative options like WW are hard to embrace as hormones everywhere and you feel low. When I first had my baby I didn't have prolapse I was told to kegal like mad to heal my stitches, it didn't feel right though I was told I was doing it correctly and before long the pressure started and I knew I had a prolapse though it took a long time for the doctors/specialists to admit it, it's as if they don't want to increase the number of woman who have it because they have no understanding of dealing with it. All I would say is if you can feed your baby again then I would, don't miss out on your wonderful experience with your baby, I fed till 16 months and I am pregnant with my 2nd baby now and I am having more urges to wee all the time, every time I stand up but this was all under control previously. I must say I did wake in the night to go before being pregnant and since my issues but I was dealing with this. I can't tell you medically but I would avoid drugs and the standard system. I made the step but it took awhile and I signed off physical therapy or even discussing it further with the NHS and was a lot happier. Please please avoid Kegals and read the site. But firstly enjoy your baby and try to relax. This will get better and it's not an emergency so breathe and relax. Take care
