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.

Remember, the forum is here for two reasons. First, to get your questions answered by other women who have knowledge and experience to share. Second, it is the place to share your results and successes. Your stories will help other women learn that Whole Woman is what they need.
Whether you’re an old friend or a new acquaintance, welcome! The Whole Woman forum is a place where you can make a difference in your own life and the lives of thousands of women around the world!

RE: flax seed oil
Hi Sandy-Joy!
I think you would really enjoy reading Udo Erasmus' book, Fats That Heal/Fats That Kill (see resources.) Human beings used to consume far more omega-3 than we do today. These highly perishable lipids are utilized by the body for the highest-velocity reactions...the ones that really "turn the lights on" during processes involved with eyesight, brain function, red blood cell production, and cell division. Sources used to include raw organ meats, raw fish, flax, and other seeds we no longer consume.
Because these are such "high speed" oils oxidizing very rapidly in our body, they also oxidize rapidly outside the body, too. Light and oxygen destroy them very fast, therefore you want to be very careful of the source where you obtain them. Here is a company that gives excellent service and will deliver to your door the highest quality flax oil. (www.brinkleysbest.com)
Just a little (2 tsp.) on a piece of toast or bowl of rice will give you your daily requirement.
Enjoy,
Christine

RE: flax seed oil
I am new to all of this and it seems overwhelming. I have taken flax seed supplements but from what I am reading it highly depends on the type or it will not help. I do have your book and that is how I found the website. I am learning by trial and error and the website has helped so far. I have so many questions, but don't want to bombard you -- one that concerns me and makes me think there could be something more wrong is that after I have an orgasm the contractions in my uterus hurt. I have been diagnosed with stage 2 rectocele and my doctor refered me to a specialist and of course is suggesting surgery to tighten the rectal muscle and cut away the excess. Your exercises in the book are from yoga which I have been practicing since 1989. I do sit all day long as a legal secretary and commute to work an hour each way, which I am sure is a problem. I am not overweight and eat "healthy" however not a vegetarian. Am going to try to elimination of gluton. Thanks for the help and would appreciate any advice. lvick

RE: flax seed oil
Hello and welcome Ivick,
Can't imagine what might be causing the uterine discomfort...fibroids are a possibility. Yes, sitting is the great nemesis for rectocele. Diet, posture, and a radical change in sitting positions can only help.
Try not to be overwhelmed. What we are talking about here are changes that are healthy, invigorating, and life-extending. If you are feeling tired or maxed-out, just kick back and rest for as long as you need to. I am not suggesting that you make radical change all at once. The way it works is that if we try to incorporate these things joyfully and easily, the time comes when NOT sitting or standing correctly feels miserable, and sitting/standing up feels great!
Wishing you well,
Christine

RE: flax seed oil
Just a suggestion: I buy huge bags of flax seed and keep then in my freezer. I put a bit in a container and keep in my fridge. Then, when I make pancakes, breads, oatmeal, quisch (sp? that dish with eggs--brain fog...) I will take several spoonfuls, pop it in my coffee grinder (I don't drink coffee--so the grinder is dedicated to crunching flax seeds & occasionally spices) then add it to the recipe. I think it's better that way--oils do have a tendancy to fade away pretty fast.
I sprinkle it on everything. Since my hyst, I've become fanatical about my diet--and it's helped.
