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 KBM and welcome. When I
Hi KBM and welcome. When I first started this work over 6 years ago, there were not so many products here to choose from. I worked with nothing but the book, for my entire first year. I got quite far into things that way, but eventually I needed more visuals and more direct encouragement! So I get where you are coming from.
I think you would benefit greatly from Christine's new Fundamentals videos. They are not expensive and they will give you the boost you need right now, I guarantee you. Read about them here:
https://wholewoman.com/newpages/fundamentals/
This can seem like the start of a very steep climb at the beginning. One thing to remember is that there is no surgical "cure" for prolapse and you are on the right track learning to stabilize things naturally. WW posture is really just a return to the natural spinal shape we developed from the time we first stood up as toddlers. It never should have been lost.
Lots of encouragement here. You are not alone. Look around you and realize that the majority of women you see, have this condition, and many of them have compromised their pelvic organ support systems surgically in ways that cannot be reversed. Count your blessings that you're here, and keep the faith! - Surviving
PS: For a lovely dance-based workout and lots of background information, nothing beats the First Aid for Prolapse video. The Yoga series is fabulous, for variety. So keep reading, watching, and moving in WW posture!

Thank you for your lovely
Thank you for your lovely response. I will check into the other videos you mentioned. I don't want to give in to surgery as I do everything else naturally in my life. I appreciate your help!

3rd degree cystocele, rectocele.
Two years ago I was diagnosed with a small cystocele. Naturally, I read everything I could about it. Then I remembered reading Jane Fonda's book, Third Act where she talks about having vaginal dryness and she recommended an insert called Vagifem. At the beginning of my diagnosis, I was walking around with what felt like a peeled fresh lychee trying to escape from my vagina! But after using the Vagifem rectified that, and bought me time to begin performing my pelvic floor exercises. Losing belly fat helps with the cystocele and I've read where anal sex is off the menu, too - for those who like that! - if you have a rectocele. I wish you the very best of luck and admire you for going the natural route.

Hi Viewdemonde and welcome,
Hi Viewdemonde and welcome,
I am not sure if you are advertising here or not; could you tell us a little more about yourself and what brings you to whole woman?
Actually, honey is the best remedy for vaginal dryness, and it is natural and healthy for the body.
And pelvic floor exercises are really a no no also; read the many articles Christine has written about them here on this site.
Also, weight has nothing to do with prolapse, it's posture correction that is needed to help relieve the symptoms of prolapse.
Please do some reading around this site; it is eyeopening!
