When Saving the Whole Woman, Natural Alternatives to Surgery for Pelvic Organ Prolapse and Urinary Incontinence was published in 2003, it was the first book of its kind. Astonishingly, today it remains the only such book to address this issue! It was a great beginning. It sold 6,000 copies, a very respectable number for a small publisher and a first-time author. And, it got noticed by a number of important people in the field. More importantly, it gave hope to thousands of women who had been told they had a “disease” that was only treatable by surgery.
Saving the Whole Woman blew apart the myth that prolapse is a disease and that surgery is necessary. I showed that surgery is not only unnecessary, it is seriously hazardous to your health.
So glad I did not listen to doctors 17 years ago and still have my uterus! After learning more from Susun I chose to forgo surgery and never looked back.
