A member asked:
Are seizures common after making love?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO - thank goodness: Seizures can be triggered by many stimuli. Flashing lights, over breathing, sudden surge in blood pressure, excessive exertion, etc. Fortunately, it is rare that sexual activity causes seizures. The physiological reactions of the body during climax has been compared to a "seizure", but is more of a normal outpouring of response. If definite, pre-treatment with a seizure suppressant may help.
