Pussy Pain Needs Attention Too

Contrary to popular belief, sexual dysfunction doesn't only refer to guys problems with getting an erection. But because there is still such a stigma around women's sexuality, ED (erectile dysfunction for those of us that haven't watched TV in the last five years) is the one that gets all the attention. Well, finally people (well, the New York Times) are beginning to talk about female sexual dysfunction and the nightmare that some disorders can be. Imagine being in severe pain that doesn't even allow you to sit for too long, then having your doctor tell you that it's all in your mind. Viagra is dispensed like candy, while women are basically being called hysterical. Anyway, times are finally a-changin'. The NY Times speaks up.


When a woman complains of genital pain so severe that it makes sexual intercourse all but impossible, her partner may jump to the conclusion that she has a phobia about sex. But what if that same woman also experiences excruciating pain when trying to insert a tampon, undergo a pelvic exam, wear a pair of jeans, ride a bicycle or go jogging? Can phobia explain all those problems?

Not very likely. In fact, studies have shown that sexual phobias are rarely the explanation for a condition known as vulvodynia, a chronic discomfort of the vulva that can result in searing or shooting pain when any amount of pressure is placed on the sensitized tissues. Some women compare the feeling to acid being poured on an open wound.

The problem can last months, years or a lifetime. Worse, doctors often misdiagnose it or treat it inappropriately, if at all.

For decades, women suffering from vulvodynia have been told that nothing seems to be wrong with them — nothing, that is, that the examining physician can discern — or that the condition may be real but that nothing can be done.

At the very least one good thing came of the female hysteria diagnosis.

Jeez, looks like I can't stop thinking about painful and pain inflicting pussies today.
