Sudden headache during sex

[onlyconnect]

A couple times lately I’ve experienced sudden onset headache whilst orgasming. The sex has been very intense ( new relationship) and my instinct is that the headache is harmless ( I am a headachy person generally). It does linger though.
Anyone else had this ? Anyone know anything other than it’s harmless?

It could be due to pressure and possibly over exerting yourself, maybe try taking a pain killer before hand to see if it helps. If not you might want to get it checked out by a doctor.

This is definitely a thing. I’ve had it before, especially if it’s intense or quick climax.

Wife has said in the past of a light headache or light headedness on a few occasions after sex but normally if it’s been quite intense. Never been anything that’s caused any worry though.
