Living With Uncontrollable Genital Arousal Sex and Psychology Podcast
-
- Сексуальность
Imagine that your g******s were in a constant, uncontrollable state of arousal. You might be thinking that doesn’t sound too bad, but you’d be mistaken. Persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD) is a highly distressing condition. People who have it live with unwanted arousal that doesn’t bring pleasure, and there’s almost no relief from it. This makes it difficult, if not impossible, to concentrate, work, and sleep. In this episode, we’re going to dive into what we know about PGAD, including how common it is, what causes it, and how it’s treated.
I am joined once again by Sue W. Goldstein, an AASECT certified Sexuality Educator and Clinical Research Manager at San Diego Sexual Medicine. Ms. Goldstein co-authored the book When Sex Isn’t Good to provide education and empowerment to women with sexual dysfunction.
Some of the questions we explore in this episode include:
What does PGAD look like in everyday life?
What kind of effects does this have on people?
How long have we known about PGAD, and how common is it?
What causes uncontrollable genital arousal?
Are there any treatments that work?
To learn more about women’s sexual health issues, check out Sue’s book here and visit Vella Biosciences.
