Ladies, can anyone shed any light?
Sometimes, when I dream about something sensual (not necessarily sexual, could be eating tasty food or cuddling an animal) I get (in my dream) a generally warm and fuzzy sensation and then a sort of spasm, which is not unpleasant in my dream but wakes me up with a sharp, steady ache around the level of the top of my mons pubis. The ache lasts for about half an hour, gradually fading away. As far as I can tell, there is no sexual component, I don’t wake up feeling mentally or physically turned on or anything.
It seems to only happen when my bladder is fairly full, but there’s no leakage at the time and if I try to go to the loo before the ache has passed then I have to really strain to repeatedly pass small amounts of urine.
It’s been happening since I was in my late twenties, maybe, but seems to be getting more common in the last few years (loss of bladder capacity with age?).
Is this one of those “oh, yeah, dead common but no one talks about it” things? Does anyone know what’s going on?
It’s more annoying than anything else — the half hour wait for the ache to go stops me going back to sleep for long enough to get thoroughly woken up — but if it’s an early symptom of something then I guess I should find out more.
