Sexual dysfunction?? Or tic??

(have posted this question on the touretts forum as well since it is relavant to both topics)
This is my first post and i rly need help so plz answer if you can:)
I apoligize for the sexual content...
I have tic syndrom characterized by a bunch of complex motor tics these usualy get worse at night or when i am alone i am currently taking no treatment or medication for this because i belive i can manage to live with it ( i also have ocd, add and posibly ptsd) However there is one thing that really bothers me and im not sure if its a tic or some sort of sexual dysfunction. What happens is this: countless times a day at home, outside, at night, in the day i feel a urge to cleanch or move my vaginal musculs it is a little similar to having a split second orgasam but it is NOT VOLENTARY AND NOT CAUSED BY ACTUAL AROUSAL its just sort of like I have to do it and i hate it. Its like having zero control over my body and worse over my sexual experience. Usualy it follows or is followed by a lot of my other motor tics especially those in my legs and feet. It feels exactly like a tic does-the urge and the helplessness to stop does anyone know anything about this????
When I actually am sexualy active in a normal voluntary way it calms the tics down for a little but it always comes back after some time .
I end up twitching in my seat which looks like the tic is in my whole body but its only because of the movment down there.... Please please someone help me !!!
Thank you

Have you ever checked out the Tourette Association of America online? If not, you might want to research it.

Good Luck :)

Hi,


Have you spoke with your doctor or specialist about these recent symptoms?  You might want to reconsider taking a low dosage medication, and/or therapy for your tics. ~ it could make a difference in your life as far as your happiness and health goes.

Have you been under a lot of pressure lately? Do you ever notice that your tics are more active or present when you are stressed?  I think you mentioned something that might offer a clue in regard to the vaginal muscle clenching and tics that you are experiencing; you wrote that when you are sexually active it calms the tics down. Perhaps once you've been satisfied (sexually) your anxiety and stress levels are greatly reduced and you notice the tics lessen?  In other words, it's a possibility that stress and anxiety are playing a big role here.  Sexual arousal releases a natural brain chemical (Serotonin) that makes you feel great and calms the nervous system. Exercise increases Serotonin levels in your body also...

I'm not a doctor, but the only advice I can suggest would be speaking with a doctor or specialist about your symptoms, and possibly adding a medication or adding therapy (maybe a combo of both?) to your daily routine.  

Take Care
