Abstract

Family Studies Psychology Psychology, Clinical Social Sciences
A case is described of a 40-year-old woman with persistent spontaneous orgasms after use of cannabis and five hours of intense pounding sexual activity. She presented with severe anxiety, in particular suffering from restless genital syndrome (ReGS). However, she did not fulfill any of the five criteria of ReGS. It was concluded that her spontaneous orgasms were the result of the use of cannabis combined with the long duration of previous sexual activity. This finding is not only important for physicians, but also for highly exposed subjects such as those active in the sex industry.
