“A frank, valuable introduction to a little-known medical condition.” -Kirkus Reviews
Sherrie Palm’s book Pelvic Organ Prolapse: The Silent Epidemic, is a valuable tool for women navigating pelvic organ prolapse (POP), providing a guidance and support bridge between patient and practitioner. Palm takes a hard look at an extremely common yet highly stigmatized women's health condition, and talks about POP out loud in terms all women can understand. Half the female population is estimated to experience POP. Palm shares the facts along with her personal experience, to enable women to recognize and understand all aspects of this common, cryptic, very personal aspect of women's health.

Sherrie Palm Bio
THE HISTORY:
Sherrie Palm's journey to increase awareness of pelvic organ prolapse began within two weeks of her diagnosis in 2007, when she found it unacceptable a condition could be extremely common, yet shrouded in silence. Palm's 1st edition of Pelvic Organ Prolapse: The Silent Epidemic was published in 2009. As patients began reaching out, Sherrie recognized the need to establish additional support for women navigating this common, cryptic condition, and founded the Association for Pelvic Organ Prolapse Support (APOPS) in 2010. The 2nd edition of Sherrie's book was published in 2012. POP awareness and dialogue continues to expand and evolve, and globally women are uniting and becoming more vocal about pelvic organ prolapse, sharing support and guidance in APOPS Support Forum.
