In Sept 2014 I wrote “Success! It has been a year since I first had the sensation of a very, very misplaced tampon … Now a year later with Whole Woman walking and sitting posture and exercises, my prolapse is being successfully managed and urinary frequency urges I have had for years are gone. I was able to do a 2-hour mountain hike with no symptoms 2 months into this. I also am enjoying the posture. I have never been able to successfully correct my lifelong bad posture. Within weeks of learning this posture, I was no longer slumping my shoulders.

Hi looking to see if anyone can offer me advice. I am 10 weeks post partum. I was referred to physical therapy for what my doctor described as lax vaginal walls. However I am able to see a small bulge at the opening of my vagina about the size of a grape. I also have difficulty when walking I feel like i need to pee all the time. However when I'm sitting or lying down this feeling disappears. It's almost as if I'm jarring my bladder as I walk. I also have heaviness and the feeling of a tampon being stuck. I had a big baby delivered by ventouse.

hi ladies,

we've been approached by a writer for Cosmopolitan magazine's website wanting to speak with a woman in her 20s or 30s who has been having postpartum issues such as problems with pain, incontinence etc. and had difficulty finding help. if you fit this description, please respond here and i'll put you in touch with her. thanks!

I have a greatly prolapsed uterus which is showing some stress in the cervix area. I had it last summer and was able to take care of it with the recommended organic honey. I have a little bleeding with it. The very sad thing is that I am reticent about going to a doctor as I know that they will recommend surgery. That happened last summer. I wonder if anyone has had this problem and knows of any additional help other than the honey -- soaking or sitz bath? I am wearing the fem support brace (have forgotten the name) today which feels helpful.

HI there,

I am 5 months post pregnancy. I have a urethrocele that is quite painful. It hurst to wipe and to have intercourse. It burns when irritated. I feel like intercourse pulls it out more.

I have had a cystocele after my last pregnancy but it did heal. That never hurt me though. My midwife checked me and she couldn't feel any prolapse except for seeing the urethrocele. She says it is at the door of the vagina but no signs of a cystocele anymore.

I recently had a UTI which took two rounds of antibiotics to clear up. Since that time I have had symptoms that made me think I might have the start of prolapse. When I visited my
midwife, she said the pelvic floor looked good, but I did have "mega atrophy." We discussed option, coconut oil, compounded estrogen cream etc. I have also read about using honey.

Hi friends

I last accessed this life-changing site four years ago when looking for help with prolapse issues. I worked hard to re-learn how to stand, walk and run properly which addressed the prolapse in four weeks, and started drinking red clover tea which helped alleviate menopausal problems like hot flashes, disrupted sleep and vaginal dryness. I have been singing Whole Woman's praises ever since to family, friends, and my family doctor.

30/4/16: Hello, I have not written here for a few years. I am 82 yrs. young, ballroom dance on ce a week and quite active even though I have other bone problems etc. etc. I am still suffering this burning & itching sensation, mostly about once a week. I have tried honey as I once read here and all types of ointments, vaseline, penaten(baby's ointment and tried inserting 1/2 of an anusol suppository. I have seen a top specialist at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto here. a few years ago but also see my regular gynocologist.

Hello. I'm new here but found this page while googling vaginal prolapse. I'm trying to see if this has happened to anyone here or anyone has heard of it. I'm 37, no children and when I get my period ( which luckily is light and 2 days long ) , I noticed that it seems like part of my vaginal wall collapses. This only happens during my period and maybe for a day or two after it ends. It feels like just a bunch of wall tissue is puffy and like hangs down ( but not out ) of my vagina. I can press it back up into place but then it kind of pushes back down.
