Woman who has 100 orgasms a day says it's making her life a living hell

A woman who said she experienced up to 100 orgasms a day has said battling the condition is a ‘living hell’.

Amanda Gryce, from Florida in the US, has a rare condition known as persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD), which means she orgasms countless times a day.

Appearing on an episode of TLC’s Body Bizarre back in 2012, Amanda said: “I lost count, honestly, of how many times a day I have orgasms. I’d have 50 orgasms and well into the day would be well over a 100 by that evening.”

The condition left poor Amanda in pain, so much so that she visited numerous doctors to try and get help for the problem.

Explaining what it was like living with the rare condition, she told TLC: “The way I can explain PGAD to other people is just imaging your body, particularly your genital area, being in a constant state of arousal. On top of constant pain.

“I’m kind of what you consider an insomniac. I’m usually up to the hours of 6am, 7am, 8 o’clock in the morning.”

In an interview in 2014, Amanda stressed that you can definitely have too much of a good thing and compared it to ‘eating a lot of candy’.

"Instead of being a beautiful thing like it's supposed to be, it would start becoming more of a nuisance," she said.

"Pleasure is supposed to be a good thing, but when you have it for too long, it's like eating a lot of candy -- something that's really good and makes you happy, but then you start getting sick from it, because you've had too much."

Describing the physical sensations, she continued: “When they’re intensifying, like they are right now this second, my whole abdominal wall is, like, flexing.

“I never really make any noises - only because I kind of suppress them. Then, of course, my legs won’t stop shaking.”

Thankfully, in an update a couple of years after the show aired - Amanda was undergoing treatment with doctor Robert Echenberg in her home state of Florida.

Speaking to the New York Post in 2014, she said: “After seeing Dr. Echenberg, I found there are things which can reduce the intensity of the orgasms - even though they are still constant. I take medication to numb the areas and do exercise to try to take [my mind off of it].

“Taking control over the disorder rather than it controlling me is a dream come true.”
