Sooooo pro Surgery by Andalucia  1 Stars
September 26, 2009
This book certainly does not discuss *all the options. Check out Christine Kent's book and her wholewoman website to gain an insightful look at the issue of Pelvic Organ Prolapse and how to reverse it naturally without getting a carpenter ooops surgeon in to 'deal' with it.
Interestingly I knew a holistic practitioner who's wife had a prolapse and I pointed him to her work and he said she'd just prefer to be done with it and get the surgery. I don't say this with any sort of pleasure but when I talked to him a year later his wife was in a considerable degree of pain from the surgery.
The body doesn't take well to being cut and pasted..

POP by Sherrie Palm by Lynne Kastner (Hastings, Mn.)  5 Stars
September 05, 2009
What an eye opening delight!
In my 33 years of nursing we knew what to do for those end
results of POP. Nothing was discussed or written about preventative
measures.
The awareness and knowledge this book brings forth is invaluable.
A must read for women of all ages.

August 30, 2009
It's about time an educational tool is developed to help mainstream women know and understand thier bodies. Pelvic Organ Prolapse can have a devastating affect on it's sufferers, and we all know women often tend to suffer in silence. No more. Sherrie Palm offers an insightful look at POP from the patient's prespective. The reader won't have to wade through medical technological terms that require an MD degree to understand. This is a good book to share around.
