A doctor has provided 1 answer
Consult: The condition you describe may be what is termed sex headache. There are three types; a dull ache that intensifies as as sexual excitement increases, a sudden, severe explosive headache at orgasm, or a position related (postural) headache noted after intercourse.If it occurs at orgasm, please get checked by a neurologist, since 5-12% are related to subarachnoid hemorrhage. Diltiazem or indomethaci.
