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.

well...
I didn't notice a difference in my rectocele from the exercise. I did it twice a day for two weeks and then I got sick this past week so I haven't done it for a week. Even though I didn't notice an improvement, I kept doing it because it helped stretch my hamstrings. I think the diet change is helping me more. I am just getting started with it and haven't made consistent changes yet because of my already strict diet from nursing a baby with allergies. Once I stop nursing though I am going to try a completely vegan diet to see if that helps.

I have a primary cystocele
and tried the exercise a few times and really liked it. I certainly felt better after doing it, although Ihad challenges pushing my bottom up against the wall. AS far as I know, I don't have a rectocele.
Here's another sort of "test" though. I got a really bad cough and was experimenting with best positions to cough. I mean this has lasted days and days. In sitting posture, I sat in posture, and really felt organs protected from intraabdominal pressure. Then, I let my back go int a "c" (aka slump) and boy did I feel like things were getting pushed down. For what it's worth!

not sure
I'm not sure if the exercise has made a noticable difference or not, but I like the stretch. I think (or maybe I am imagining) that I can feel my colon lengthen. is that possible? In any case, I was having a particularly rough day one day last week and got into a similar position but with my legs up on the sofa (knees bent), and it felt oh so good. of course, as you keep saying, christine, the real work is done when we are up and about. but if this feels good, it can't hurt.

Hi christine,
i saw in a post back that someone had difficulties with the chair pillow excercise. I have to say i skip this one too and some other chair one's as i feel too much pressure from them.
