Sex Is Medicine With Devi Ward

Devi speaks with Kim Ramsey about what it is like to live with Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder.Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder, also known as PGAD or Restless Genital Syndrome or Persistent Genital Arousal Syndrome, is a condition characterized by unrelenting, spontaneous and uncontainable genital arousal in females. The condition may or may not include arousal with orgasm and/or genital engorgement. The patient's arousal is not linked to sexual desire. Because PGAD people involuntarily challenge medical and sexual norms, they are often culturally, emotionally, socially and medical marginalized. This leads to economic, political and interpersonal dynamics that can cause the patient severe distress. We are humans with a disorder that has not yet been fully ratified by the medical community and therein lies the problem.
