Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder as a Dissociative Trauma Related Condition Treated with Brainspotting A Successful Case Report

Patrícia FM, José FP, de F and Marcelo M

Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (PGAD) or Persistent Sexual Arousal Syndrome (PSAS) is characterized by excessive genital arousal for long periods of time without desire or associated sexual stimulation. Intrusive orgasms arise spontaneously and very frequently, which hinders the patient’s daily routine, work and sleep and leads to significant functional impairment. This condition is unwanted by the individual and perceived as unpleasant and impossible to control. Since it was first described in 2001 [1] several potential causes have been suggested: psychological, pharmacological, neurological and vascular ones.
