Coping strategies in women with GPPPD were classified as "problem-focused coping," "emotion-focused coping," and "treatment-seeking." These findings indicate a need for GPPPD information and education, as well as a need for healthcare professionals to actively inquire about sexual problems and commit to serious treatment efforts. Cultural interventions that promote sexual pleasure can aid in the management of GPPPD.
