It is possible...: It depends on the stroke type and your underlying risk factors. Certainly, heart rate and blood pressure increase slightly during sexual activity, and lower shortly afterward. Rupture of cerebral aneurysm has been associated physical exertion, including intercourse—and orgasm alone has been associated with at least one case of cerebral artery dissection. Smoking, hypertension, etc. increase risk.
