Reflux dyspareunia.
In a prospective study of 100 women with known gastro-oesophageal reflux 77% suffered to some extent from symptoms resulting from it during sexual intercourse (called here "reflux dyspareunia"). A simple treatment plan of explanation and conservative measures was used, and this produced improvement in 61 of the 77 patients.
