ABSTRACT

Abstract Genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder (GPPPD) can be an extremely bothersome condition for patients, and a tough challenge for professionals regarding its assessment and treatment. The goal of the present paper is to review the etiology, assessment, and treatment of GPPPD, especially focusing on the cognitive aspects of the disease and cognitive-behavioral treatment options, through a non-systematic review of articles indexed to the Medline, Scopus and Web of Science databases, using the following MeSH queries: pelvic pain; dyspareunia; vaginismus; vulvodynia; and cognitive therapy. Altogether, 36 articles discussing the etiology, diagnosis and management of GPPPD were selected. We provide an overview of GPPPD based on biological, psychological and relational factors, emphasizing the last two. We also summarize the available medical treatments and provide strategies to approach the psychological trigger and persisting factors for the patient and the partner. Professionals should be familiarized with the factors underlining the problem, and should be able to provide helpful suggestions to guide the couple out of the GPPPD fear-avoidance circle.


Resumo A perturbação de dor gênito-pélvica e da penetração (PDGPP) é uma patologia com elevado impacto no bem-estar das pacientes, e traduz-se num desafio diagnóstico e de tratamento para os profissionais que as acompanham. O objetivo deste artigo é rever a etiologia e o tratamento da PDGPP, tendo em conta, principalmente, os aspetos cognitivos e as abordagens de inspiração psicoterapêutica cognitivo-comportamental. Para tal, foi efetuada uma revisão não sistemática dos artigos indexados às bases de dados Medline, Scopus e Web of Science, usando os termos: dor pélvica; dispareunia; vaginismo; vulvodinia; e terapia cognitiva. No total, foram incluídos 36 artigos discutindo a etiologia, diagnóstico e tratamento da PDGPP. Neste artigo, proporcionamos uma revisão do tratamento da PDGPP baseado em fatores biológicos, psicológicos e relacionais, enfatizando os últimos dois. Também resumimos as opções de tratamento

ABSTRACT

El médico de familia está capacitado para resolver la mayoría de los problemas de salud de sus pacientes. Dentro del consultorio, el cansancio constituye un motivo de consulta muy frecuente. Su abordaje debe incluir la evaluación del contexto del paciente y un enfoque sistémico que incluya otros niveles diagnósticos y terapéuticos. Se presenta el caso de una paciente que, a partir de este motivo de consulta tan frecuente y junto a intervenciones de su médico de cabecera, logró modificar el foco del problema y comenzar un tratamiento acorde.

ABSTRACT

Vaginismo é condição clínica rara em que a penetração vaginal, seja pelo ato sexual, espéculo ginecológico ou outro objeto, é impedida. Associa-se a multiplicidade de fatores que incluem condições sociais, psicológicas, psiquiátricas, ginecológicas, psicanalíticas e sexológicas. Sua etiologia está ligada, principalmente, a traumas sexuais e educação sexual rígida, embora nem sempre essas associações possam ser feitas. É assunto sobre o qual existe grande desconhecimento, inclusive pelos médicos, o que torna sua abordagem difícil, muitas vezes iatrogênica. O tratamento inclui técnicas de psicoterapia cognitiva e comportamental, tratamento médico com ansiolíticos e anestésicos tópicos, além de uso de vasodilatadores vaginais. Tratamentos com base em fisioterapia por eletroestimulação vaginal e injeções vaginais de neurotoxina botulínica têm sido propostos, ainda sem evidência científica que os autorize. Esta revisão discute conceitos e tratamentos do vaginismo.


Vaginismus is a rare clinical condition that prevents vaginal penetration, either during the sexual act, or by a gynecological speculum or any other object. It is associated to multiple factors including social, psychological, psychiatric, gynecological, psychoanalytical, and sexual conditions. Its etiology is mainly linked to sexual traumas and rigid sexual education,even though this kind of association is not always traceable. Knowledge about the subject is extremely limited, even among physicians. This is a difficult topic to approach, sometimes requiring iatrogenic approaches. Its treatment includes cognitive and behavioral psychotherapy, medical treatment with anxiolytics and topic anesthetics, as well as use of vaginal vasodilators. Treatment methods based on physical therapy by vaginal electrostimulation and vaginal injections of botulinum neurotoxin have been proposed, although no scientific evidence currently evidently supports their use. This review discusses concepts and treatment methods for vaginismus.
