Relief for Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (PGAD): Embracing a Path to Reclaim Your Life
Empowering You to Seek Relief Without Shame
Do you find yourself constantly aroused, even in the absence of sexual thoughts? It’s possible that you may be experiencing Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (PGAD). It’s important to note that PGAD is distinct from hypersexuality, where one obsesses over sex or struggles to control sexual behavior.
If you have PGAD, you may feel as if you have limited options for relief. However, seeing a physical therapist who specializes in pelvic health can help to reduce or even eliminate PGAD symptoms.
Reclaim your life by contacting Vitality Women’s Physical Therapy today. We are dedicated to providing you with comprehensive information about your treatment options.
Understanding PGAD: Breaking the Silence
PGAD is a medical condition characterized by constant and unwanted arousal, unrelated to sexual thoughts or interest. Increased blood flow to the genital area causes throbbing sensations that can persist for hours, days, or even weeks.
These overwhelming feelings of arousal can make it challenging to sit or concentrate, and may be accompanied by pelvic, buttock, or leg pain. While the precise causes of PGAD are still being studied, potential factors include:
- Psychological issues and stress
- Side effects of medications, such as antidepressants
- Genital infections
- Pelvic problems
- Hormonal changes, including discontinuation or restart of hormone therapy after menopause
