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.

Vaginal Vault Prolapse
Very serious stuff. Women need to start educating themselves (and other women). The resources are out there.
I found this on the website of the HERS Foundation:
"The vaginal canal is composed of soft tissue that can stretch and elongate. A vaginal vault is not part of the normal female anatomy. The vaginal canal is made into a vaginal vault when a gynecologist surgically removes the uterus and cervix and sutures the top of the vagina closed. The surgical closing of the top of the vagina results in a loss of the vaginal tissue's ability to stretch and elongate."
Thanks Whole Woman, for continuing to bring the truth out into the open. - Surviving

I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I can't find my comments and responces? I am so depressed over all this. Since my husband became disabled unexpectedly a year ago we lost our insurance and only get enough money to pay bills and very small amount for food. I've visited your site but cannot afford anything. Is there a site that I can go to so I can learn the exercises and other ways of putting things back where they belong? My prolapse uterus is taking over my life emotionally. Please help.

Hugs BKD, sorry that life is so rough for you - I truly understand. We all go thru tough times. I hope it gets better for you soon.
As for your comments/responses - when you log in on the left side of the screen there is an option for "My Account" click on that and then click on the "Track" tab and it will give you a list.
I would recommend checking your local library to see if they have Christine's book or DVDs that you could borrow. If they don't they should be able to request it from another library on an inter-library loan. It might take a few weeks but it would be worth the wait.
It was about 2 1/2 years from the time that I was diagnosed with a cystocele and told to do kegel exercises and that it would get better as my age was good - I was also about 3 months postpartem. I felt like I was a freak with this and had no one to talk to. I did the exercises but things didn't get better they actually got way worse over those years. I had done a little research online and was afraid of surgery as I lift a lot on a daily basis - but I was to the point I was about ready to give in. I made a doctors appointment and continued to look at stuff online and found WholeWoman. I am so glad that I did because I have decided not to have surgery. I am working on my posture but need to get some new clothes to be able to do better with that or lose some weight to fit into the clothes that I have that would let me relax my tummy. I live in jeans as I need pockets and also have a wonderful child who thinks if I have other pants or skirt on they should try to pull them down at any chance they get.
Posture is what I am working on the most as I am very out of shape and my legs are not liking the exercises at this point. I am sitting cross legged on the floor and also with my legs tucked under me when sitting to get those muscles to be more kind and stronger to be able to do the exercises. You could try to sit in those ways and also work on posture when standing.
I hope these suggestions will help you. And that you can become happier.
Aging gracefully

That's great advice from Old
That's great advice from Old Fashioned Life. Just keep reading everything you can on this site; there is loads to at least get you started with the whole woman posture, starting at the tool bar above.
Many of our lades aren't able initially afford some of the products in the store; that's why Christine came up with The Whole Woman Fundamentals set at an affordable price.
Just save a little on the side and keep reading; there is lots to learn here.
