Coital Headaches

[TheFutureMrsClooney]

Don't know if I've put this in the right section.

Anyone ever experienced this? Just had the most intense pain on orgasm (twice in fact ) and have scared myself silly with Google....

Is it worth bothering a doctor?

I had this once and it went on for about 2 weeks. We were decorating in those 2 weeks and I think I had a reaction to the paint. I feel headachy whenever I am around new paint. Scarey though, mine went from no headache and fine, to sharp intense pain just as I orgasmed. The pain stayed then for few hours but reduced in intensity. Might it be a reaction like this?

Meant to say, this was 2 yrs ago and I haven't had it since. We haven't decorated since and if we do I will plan to be away. Other thing it could be is a reaction to stress - is there anything else going on in your life which is unusual?

Makes sense - past six months has seen the end of a very long marriage, seriously ill child, renovating a house, huge upheaval at work. Internet said emotional stress could be a factor, or a brain bleed! Suspect it's the first. Unfortunately the advice was to abstain from sex - first time for me in four years and I'm rather enjoying it, so rather ironic!

Thanks for the reply.
