PFD Week 2018-A Guide for Sexual Pain Disorders

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video provides a guide for healthcare practitioners on sexual pain disorders, specifically focusing on genitopelvic pain penetration disorder (formerly known as dyspareunia and vaginismus). The DSM-V has merged these two terms due to the overlap in symptoms. The criteria for genitopelvic pain penetration disorder include difficulties with vaginal penetration during intercourse, marked vulvovaginal or pelvic pain, fear or anxiety about pain during penetration, and pelvic floor muscle tension. A diagnostic algorithm based on the DSM-V has been developed to aid in diagnosis. The video also discusses the importance of a thorough history, physical examination, and specific treatments for vulvodynia, genitourinary syndrome and menopause, and vaginismus. No credits were specified in the transcript.
