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.

Vitamin C
I'm all in favor of good food and supplements for virtually every aspect of our health. I take many myself. But it's important to keep in mind that prolapse is primarily an orthopedic condition, and that any additional measures we take to manage prolapse are secondary to the Whole Woman postural work. - Surviving

Anecdotal
Surviving 60, agreed!!
Nutty girl, I have been doing 3000mg/day for several months. On days I miss it, I notice a difference in my prolapse for sure. (I feel it much more on days without vitamin C)
Good luck!

prolapse and inflammation
As I've described in many of the WW programs, the pelvic organs are really just passengers, wrapped in sacs of connective tissue. That connective tissue (fascia) thickens and attaches to bone (inappropriately called "ligaments"). We use our muscles to move our bones and literally drag the organs in one direction or the other.
Fascia is very subject to inflammation, and therefore prolapse does have an inflammatory aspect. A dozen years ago (and it's still going on to some extent), doctors were routinely telling women with prolapse that they have a "connective tissue disorder", which of course makes them feel helpless and more inclined toward the surgical "solution."
I prefer to get adequate vitamin C from my diet.

Vit C
Well, I would agree with Christine and I have no personal experience with supplementing C. Plenty of good dietary sources for that. - Surviving
