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.

cervical erosion
Hi Ally
Yeah, I had cervical erosion for several years post childbearing. However my doctor never suggested freezing it off. I had read that it was normal for many women after childbearing. The only concern the doctor had was that they were not sure then, maybe late 1980's, about the relationship between cervical erosion and cervical cancer. So they made sure I had more frequent PAP smears for a few years. I think it was classed as 'abnormal cells', but they never developed into anything, and the CE has since disappeared and I am back on regular 12 monthly PAP smears now.
I would think there would need to be a risk of harm by not intervening for the doctor to recommend freezing it off, which you have said does carry some risks. Isn't there a basic principle of medicine called "Do no harm"?
I would be asking him what harm will come from leaving the CE there and monitoring it (non-invasive). Maybe the harm will be to his hip pocket nerve? But he may have some other valid reason. Whatever happens I would only go ahead with the freezing fully informed of the risks and side effects, and decide for myself what was best, based on that.
All the best with your cervical negotiations.
Cheers
Louise
