Persistent Sexual Arousal Syndrome (PSAS) / Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (PGAD)

i'm a single woman, celibate and i've been dealing with PSAS for the last five years now and it's really getting on my nerves! i just wish there was something i could take to dampen my libido. this is as bad as having an itch that no amount of scratching satisfies or if it does it's not for long.

I'm a medical doctor with specialist interest in Sexual Medicine. I am just wondering if anybody can tell me anything about an Ayurveda medicine sometimes called Loknath Ras and its use in the management of PGAD.

The problem with this herbal treatment is that it is made from different plants in different places. Or in other words, there seems not to be a "standard" Loknath Ras.

I am 29 years old and like Cindy, African-American. I thought everyone meant horney the way I did. I didn't know somethign was wrong until my relationships consistnatly dissolved. I noticed I increasingly become more forceful toward people when I wanted my gratification. I'd do and say anything I had. My relationship with God ended as well. I isolate myself most of the time. I reduced myself to working at a strip club, thinking that is the perfect place for me. I've sought treatmentfor sex addiction before I learned about psas and pgad. Usually I am ok. But after seeking a new relationship and sharing this knowledge with that person, I am relapsing. My stomach is in constant pain.

hi, i'm vivian a 52yr old african american. i feel so blessed to know that i am not a freak and am not the only one going thru this. i started playing with myself at a very young age. i get these sensations in my vagina and have to go somewhere to relieve them. it has gotten worse over the years. i have had so many sex partners over the years. thank God i never caught any diseases. i know now that it has affected some on my relatonships in the past. i tried talking to my therapist to no avail [she will definitely get a print out of this]. i am a christian and was tired of sleeping around to try and satisfy my needs and decided to get married again and i feel my situation has made problems in my marriage. my husband has heart problems and now wont sleep with me at all. i recently found out it was due the fact that he couldn't satisfy me. thank God i happened to see a tv show on psas and it opened my eyes. i really need the online support group. this is starting to really affect my life more than ever. i'm looking forward to the help and support that is waiting for me. viv

I am a 52 year old African American women who has suffered with this condition for almost 6 years. Just recently, the condition has gotten worse. I feel overwhelmed like I need a cure and cannot think of anything to do to stop the sensation I feel in my vaginal area. I spoke with the OB-GYN about this over the years to no avail. I have irregular periods and the last two months I have been spotting only to experience a period of excessive bleeding that has lasted for five days. This being the fifth day, and it looks as though it will be the last for this cycle. I am trying to avoid doing anything drastic and really hope this is my body's way of whinding down and its introduction to perimenopause for me. I welcome all comments. Sincerely, Cyndi

Hi my name is Jan and I am just happy to finally find something on line that may explain what is happening to me. I was at my witts end and was afraid to tell anyone and not sure exactly how to if I did. I have had several serious illnesses including breast cancer 3 times and ovarian cancer once. I also had bariatric surgery then plastic surgery to remove 75 pounds of fat and skin which I had gained doing Cancer treatments. For about a year I had no feeling in the lower abdomen and sex was not enjoyable at all but then about 6 months ago I started feeling and doing the weirdest things. I dont sleep for several nights in a row because of these feelings of being sexually aroused but having sex doesn't stop it, it last for hours and sometimes days. sometimes it will just hit me when I am in the grocery store or driving down the road. the worst was at my ten year olds school program for veterans day when he was honoring my husband I had to leave I broke out into a sweat and the arousal was so bad it was painful I went out and ran the school track. is there any help for us. I don't know if it has anything to do with it but I also have restless leg syndrome.

Hi my name is Jackie and I thought something was wronh with me. I have read the responses from other women, and it surprises me, I thought i was the only one that did crazy things when i was young or still today. I am married and it is causing trouble in my marriage. I am trying to figure out a way in my mind to stop it, but i keep coming back to feeling turned on. This is a first step for me, saying it out loud. I will look for help soon. thanks

I'm not sure if I would've fell into this catagory or not. I started masterbating at 5yrs old and I first started out with short dull objects like crayons, then eventually sharper and longer like pencils, pokers to fire places, shears/sissors, hangers, meat cleavers, and whatever I could use in place of a dildo. I've been able to go without masterbating for months, sometines years and then for no apparent reason it will hit me again. I'm 34 now, and I had a relative sexually assult me at 5yrs old.

i am 55 and this disorder started when i had my hysterectomy. it drives me nuts. It is there in my sleep and all day long. i have items to take care of this, but it really does not finish the job. Because it starts all over again. the only thing that seems to control it on me is actual human contact for me. even then it may start all over again in about a half a day. i was 40 when this started. So this has been a long time. i thought i was alone in this problem. And does anyone have the same problem as me, with the actual human contact

Hi everyone: I'm Jan Lee, a psychiatric RN turned hypnotist. I have been very drawn to the stories of all of you with this disabling disorder. Hypnosis is a way to bypass the conscious mind [ the busy part of the mind] and access the subconscious mind ( the quiet receptive, noncritical part ) and establish selective ideas and thinking. It is not so complicated.It is like a rewiring of the brain. We can help people manage pain by this "rewiring." I so believe I can help you with this using hypnosis. When you are lost in a powerful book or movie, you are in a state of hypnosis..Your logical mind has simply stepped away allowing the subconscious mind to take in the experience. I live 20 miles northeast of pittsburgh, pennsylvania ( USA) I want to help you and believe I can help. Hypnosis will help you relax, focus and in a way "transform" the overstimulation into a manageable state...This is new territory for me, but I am excited with the possibility of helping you. Ask yourself: If you even get 10 percent relief would you do this? I will discuss my fees. I believe we can possibly do this over skype. I know this is hell and the reaction by some to this disorder is more upsetting. Please contact me : Jan Lee (724-884-3307)you can text me at this number .
