Sex is a headache!

Not really. ;D

But did you know that sex can cause headaches? No laughing matter, this one!

I came across this article while browsing about various causes of headaches. I wanted to know if weather changes might responsible for my migraine attacks.

While looking for the information, I came across this piece.

Sexual activity — especially an orgasm — can trigger a headache. You may notice a dull ache in your head and neck that builds up as sexual excitement increases. Or, more commonly, you may experience a sudden, severe headache just before or during orgasm.

About one in 100 people will experience a sex headache at some point during his or her lifetime. Men are at least three times more likely than women to have sex headaches.

Most sex headaches are nothing to worry about. But some can be a sign of something serious, such as problems with the blood vessels that feed your brain.

Signs and symptoms

There are two types of sex headaches. The most common variety gives no warning and occurs within a few seconds of an orgasm. Pain is often described as throbbing or stabbing. The other variety of sex headache often begins as a dull ache on both sides of the head and builds gradually over a matter of minutes before an orgasm, typically intensifying as sexual excitement increases.

Most sex headaches last a few minutes. Others may linger for a few hours. Many people who have sex headaches will experience them in clusters for a few months, and then go for more than a year without any sex headaches.
