Post-Orgasmic Illness Syndrome: a Closer Look

POIS can occur either after intercourse or masturbation, starting seconds to hours after having an orgasm, and can be lasted to 2 - 7 days. The prevalence and incidence of POIS itself are not certainly known. Reviews: Waldinger and colleagues were the first to report cases of POIS and later in establishing the diagnosis, they proposed 5 preliminary diagnostic criteria, also known as Waldinger's Preliminary Diagnostic Criteria (WPDC). Symptoms can vary from somatic to psychological complaints. The mechanism underlying this disease are not clear. Immune modulated mechanism is one of the hypothesis that is widely believed to be the cause of this syndrome apart from opioid withdrawal and disordered cytokine or neuroendocrine responses. POIS treatment is also not standardized. Treatments includeintra lymphatic hyposensitization of autologous semen, non-steroid anti-inflamation drugs (NSAIDs), steroids such as Prednisone, antihistamines, benzodiazepines, hormones (hCG and Testosterone), alpha-blockers, and other adjuvant medications.

Study Protocol and Statistical Analysis Plan
Postoperative Environment 1 RESEARCH PROTOCOL Date 7/20/20 Title The influence of postoperative environment on patient satisfaction and perception of care following pelvic reconstructive surgery Principal Investigator Rachel N. Pauls, MD Sub-Investigators Catrina Crisp MD MSc, Jennifer Yeung DO, Tiffanie Tam MD, Emily Aldrich MD Research Specialist Eunsun Yook MS, Department Department of OB/Gyn, Division of Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery Hatton # 17-076 NCT # 03379753 Purpose of Study To determine the influence of homeopathic therapies such as music therapy and images of calming nature scenes in their hospital suite following vaginal reconstructive surgery for pelvic organ prolapse on parameters of recovery such as pain, satisfaction and perception of care. o Primary Aim: To determine if patients following prolapse repair including vaginal vault suspension have decreased pain measured via a visual analog scale (VAS) on postoperative day one and just prior to discharge when exposed to the diad of music, and positive images compared to patients receiving standard care. o Secondary Aims: To determine if patients following prolapse repair including vaginal vault suspension have improved satisfaction scores and perception of care when exposed to the diad of music, and positive images compared to patients receiving standard care. Hypothesis or Research Question We hypothesize that patients exposed to alternative therapies such as music, and calming nature scenes will have decreased VAS scores for pain following vaginal reconstructive surgery when compared to controls. We further hypothesize that patients who experience the modified post-operative environment will report an improvement in overall satisfaction when providing their Postoperative Environment 2 overall hospital rating and will be more likely to refer their friends to the hospital for care in the future, as measured by the HCAHPS and VAS satisfaction scores.
