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.

Hi hobiekat and welcome to
Hi hobiekat and welcome to the Forum. The conditions you describe are all quite common in the years following hysterectomy and repairs. Doctors never tell you about all this, which is why women need to do their own research before going under the knife. Resources such as Whole Woman and the HERS Foundation have been around for quite some time now, trying to get this message out. Those like yourself who have the experience can play an important role in educating the next generation.
The natural dynamics of pelvic organ support can't be completely restored after this much alteration, but the WW postural work is still your best bet now, as you must train your body gently to hold the remaining organs as far forward as possible. This is what returning to natural human posture is all about. Do some reading around the site, especially the discussions in the Hysterectomy and Post-Surgery sections of the Forum. Consider getting Christine's Fundamentals videos:
http://www.wholewomanstore.com/Whole-Woman-Fundamentals--Posture-and-Toi...
In the Posture module she makes reference to a post-hysterectomy video, which has not yet hit the WW Store. It is the next big release and getting close. So stay tuned, you will hear about this release when it happens. It will help you greatly with posture, exercise and lifestyle information that will help improve your life, with a better understanding of what you can and can't do safely. Best of luck to you in this journey. - Surviving

post hyster/ bladder suspension problems
I don't think I had much choice about the surgery. I had a prolapsed cervix for 28yrs then my bladder fell into the uterus so it was surgery or try a pessary. I will stay tuned for the video release thank-you.

Our message
Hobiekat, this response to your last post is not directed at you, but rather at any other new readers who might be misled by your comment that three years ago, you had no choice about surgery.
An important part of our message here at WW is that prolapse itself is not a reason for surgery, not a reason to give up your uterus, and likely as not will be the cause of other worse problems. Christine herself had a profoundly prolapsed uterus directly caused by an ill-advised bladder suspension. She was determined to save her uterus, and worked and studied diligently for years to develop and share these methods which have been so life-changing for thousands of women who were fortunate enough to find their way here, over the course of the last decade and more. - Surviving
