Orgasms Lacking? Did You remember your Vitamins?

Orgasmic disorders in female are relatively common. Many women will report that their orgasms are less frequent, less strong, less satisfying than they were when they were younger. For some it's a matter of not even getting enough aroused to even have a chance to orasm. Female sexual arousal disorder is a condition in which a woman has difficulty maintaining arousal so that she doesn't ever climax. Complete lack of orgasms (anorgasmia)
is not very common. Although a number of complicated reasons for this, there may be simple fixes in some women. The research shows that low levels of vitamin B12, iron, and folate all can contribute to poor nerve function. With poor nerve function, yes, even those nerves around the clitoris do not function well. And if you do not have proper hormone levels, even the other therapies, like hormonal medications, topical medications, and MonaLisa Touch therapies may not work as well as they should. Basic blood counts can give your gyno an idea of your current blood levels so that she can determine the specific vitamins you may need to improve with your diet! So don't give up, eat healthy, and schedule that date nite, and your orgasms may switch back on!

  2. Dr. Trupin, do you provide this type of "testing service" at your practice?

  3. Yes, at our practice we do female sexual dysfunction testing. The most important first step is a diagnosis. WHO uses (World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) focuses on the physical influences on sexual response in men and women. Sexual disorders are defined as "the various ways in which an individual is unable to participate in a sexual relationship as he or she would wish." Classifications of sexual dysfunction include lack of sexual desire, sexual aversion disorder, failure of genital response, orgasmic dysfunction, nonorganic vaginismus, nonorganic dyspareunia, and excessive sexual drive.

    I actually prefer using the classification from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) which highlights the emotional and psychiatric influences involved in sexual dysfunctions, referring to the disorders as "disturbances in sexual desire and psychophysiologic changes that characterize the sexual response cycle and cause marked distress and interpersonal difficulty." Meaning that you actually have to be bothered by the condition in order to make the formal definition accurate. Their categories defined by the DSM-IV are the desire disorders of HSDD and sexual aversion, female arousal disorders, female orgasmic disorders, and finally the sexual pain disorders including both dyspareunia, and vaginismus.

    After this initial stage of the work up medical work up is planned on an individual basis that may or may not include nutrition testing.

Passing Your Uterine Lining, Menstrual Period Norms

Decidual Cast Periods can be fairly easy, passing some tissue at a time, or off can come the whole lining in one piece called a decidual cast. Generally the lining of the uterus is only 6-8 mm thick at the time of the menstrual period, and it is shed gradually, a few cells at a time. The decidual cast is when the entire lining passes spontaneously.  It's not uncommon, but it usually both uncomfortable, and alarming to some. But us women are designed to have some sort of periods  Or Not? We have to pass tissue each month. Or Not? Are they good for us? Or Not? Do we want them? Or Not? Is this something that is individual? Or Not? It's a complex topic that I will be discussing a lot over my time in this blog. So lets start with basics: How much do we bleed and what are we loosing, and just what was this that the patient passed? And another basic: track your periods, and the Women's Health Practice site http://www.womenshealthpractice.com/media/pdf/menstrual_chart.pdf you...

You Have an IUD: But a Positive Pregnancy Test

Fortunately IUD pregnancy failures are rare. But if you have an IUD for contraception, and you get a positive pregnancy test, you probably ask yourself, what next? Well, make your gyno appointment promptly, this is a condition that is not typically an emergency, but it can be and it’s not handled over the phone or on a blog, or through self diagnosis! That being said, some researchers from University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas decided to look back at over 4100 women who had IUDs and of those 42 cases who became pregnant in their institution, over about a year period of time, to help understand what these women could expect when they got to their gyno and what actually happened to their pregnancies. Accurate pregnancy diagnosis, pelvic examination, and pelvic ultrasound were the cornerstones of the evaluations. They had very specific ways they looked at their ultrasound to prove there was no pregnancy in the fallopian tube, or partially in the fallopian tube...

Post-Endometrial Ablation Syndrome

If you have had an endometrial ablation and have developed symptoms of pelvic pain you might have post endometrial ablation syndrome. What is post-endometrial ablation syndrome? It is a constellation of symptoms due to entrapped blood or tissue within a uterus that has previously undergone an endometrial ablation. We are able to diagnose this at Women's Health Practic e but occasionally other conditions are causing similar symptoms. Other complications of endometrial ablation include pregnancy, risks from pre-existing conditions such as a polyp or fibroid, an infection of the uterus, or a pregnancy. If you have had a tubal ligation then it is possible that the condition could be post-ablation tubal sterilization syndrome. The ablation procedure is designed to destroy all lining tissue, but in fact there is no way to confirm the completeness of the ablation. It is thought that either residual or regrowth of the tissue is producing the symptoms of post-endometrial ablation syndrom...
