Could you date a woman who suffers from persistent genital arousal syndrome?

Anonymous
A 24-year-old woman has up to 100 orgasms a day due to a rare medical condition which leaves her constantly aroused.


Amanda Gryce, who suffers from Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder, says the condition has almost ruined her life.

Her uncontrolled orgasms can be triggered by anything from riding in a car to a loud bass.

She said: 'I can have 50 orgasms in one day and five or ten within an hour of each other.

'It happens when I'm with my friends or out in public and it's very embarrassing.

'It kills me inside. I just have to put on a smile and pretend that nothing's wrong.'

Once at the point of despair, she is now turning her life around after finding love - and much needed medical treatment, after battling doctors who didn't understand PGAD or how to treat it.

Miss Gryce said: 'Since last year I've been on a quest to find out more about this condition.

'It's been one disappointment after another thanks to the reluctance of some doctors to see this as a valid condition.'

But after making contact with pelvic pain expert Dr Robert Echenberg, she hopes she has found a way to control her orgasms.

Miss Gryce said: 'After seeing Dr Echenberg I found there are things which can reduce the intensity of the orgasms - even though they are still constant.

'I take medication to numb the areas and do exercise to try to take me mind of it. Taking control over the disorder rather then it controlling me is a dream come true.

However, under doctors' orders, Miss Gryce and her boyfriend Stuart Triplett, 22, must abstain from sexual contact.

The couple met seven months ago on a dating website. And despite previously having sex to cope when her symptoms were bad, she must now stay celibate.

'Stuart's really been holding me back as far as the intimacy goes - he actually has to remind me we're not allowed to do anything.'
