Hello everyone,
I've been having pain in the region of the perineum for a few years now. I went to the urologist, and got the whole medical cornucopia thrown at me - including, but not limited to actual probing of my urethra all the way to the bladder and antibiotics. Since I am here, you can probably guess that they didn't find anything out of place.
I've suspected for some time that I was suffering from a type of prostatitis, specifically chronic pelvic pain syndrome. I feel a tightening after orgasm around where my prostate is, which leads to a burning sensation as well as generally unsatisfying orgasms.
Recently, I was reading up on hypnosis/psychotherapy, and noticed that on the wikipedia page about chronic pelvic pain syndrome, they seem to imply that the problem is mostly psychosomatic, targeting the pelvic wall muscles. Intrigued by this, I did a little test and noticed that I seem to subconsciously clench my kegel muscles when I ejaculate. I did a second test, and masturbated while massaging the affected region, and felt much less pain, and more pleasure than usual, so I think I'm onto something.
Therefore, I have decided that I will try and allocate some time every day in order to do kegel exercises and try to relax my muscles as much as possible. I've read that accupuncture and yoga have also been found to have an impact on cpps, and will also be looking at those avenues.
I was wondering if anyone here had any similar experiences to share. Does anyone here have somewhat painful orgasms / chronic pain in the perineum? If so, what did you do about it?
