Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder is one of the rarest, uncommonly reported sexual disorders in men who experience unwanted, unrelenting, intrusive, persistent, and spontaneous arousal sensations. These men experience a variety of feelings in their genital/ reproductive area such as:
- Discomfort
- Pressure
- Pulsation
- Engorgement
- Beating
- Throbbing
While we may think these are common sensations of erections, one should note the fact that these feelings occur when there is an absence of ‘conscious sexual thoughts’ or ‘sexual desire/ interest’. The feeling during PGAD will be more similar to that of having constant orgasms. PGAD can last from a few minutes to a few hours, days, and even weeks, in serious conditions.
PGAD to the most extent is associated with priapism, (another sexual disorder which has similar symptoms of an erection lasting way longer than usual).
Treatment
Being an uncommon condition, PGAD can cause a great deal of unnecessary stress, worry, anxiety problems which can affect an individual’s social as well as overall life. Sexual issues like PGAD not just require physical treatments but also a combination of treatments that combine and work together to better and improvise all the aspects of the individual’s life (physical, mental, emotional).
