Ok, so the passed couple of days.. everytime I try or do masturbate.. I get this pounding headache that will not go away for hours. It's weird and damn aggrivating to not be able to do it.. haha. Anyone know why this has been happening or if it happens to you?

I have never heard of this before. Wish I could give you some feedback. Do you get headaches from your workouts? Just wondering if increase in heart rate and breathing trigger the headache and if so then maybe that's somehow related.

And of course we'll assume that you are NOT using poppers as this can be the cause of headaches.

I looked it up, Coital headaches... supposedly there's a ratio for men who have it, 4:1.. don't know if that's true.. I've never heard of it before.

To answer your question. Yes, I do get them near the end, sometimes after, my workouts.. they aren't nearly as bad, though.

And no, no poppers. I've never used them and don't plan on it.

Yes I used to get this either just before orgasm or just after. It was very uncomfortable and at times scary (although it did not last for hours). And guess what? I had high blood pressure, and I think that might have been a warning sign. Although you are young, your blood pressure may be elevated. Have a doctor check it out sometime just to be safe.

After I lost weight and my doctor put me on "altace" a blood pressure pill, my blood pressure went to normal (120/72) and the headaches went away.

First off, see an MD. They can screen if anything physically is wrong with your bod. However, I am curious to know when it all started happening. Is this the first time it happened to you? Was anything out of the ordinary when you masturbated this last time and got the headache? What was happening elsewhere in your life? heart? relationships? Just trying to help you figure out if it is simply a blood pressure issue or something else going on. Be gentle with yourself.

Iv had that happen before, usually if i haven't been hydrating properly. Dont much more than that. Really can kill the mood.

I've had that happen a few times, actually. It turned out for me it was dehydration. Blood flow was reaching to lower places and because it was thicker, it was harder to pump oxygen to my brain. It would last for a while afterwards (whether I stopped or not) and eventually go away when I had some water and advil.

If you're anything like me and dont drink near enough water, that's what I'd guess is happening.

One time I had a headache so bad I had to stop and lay down and sleep it off. I teared up from the pain.

Funny ... I've always found the opposite

But really it has to do usually with increases in Blood Pressure and sometimes to rushes of certain hormones that regulate it

But if this happens all the time and it's enough to make you really take notice it's best to tell your Doc
Your BP might be spiking and that's a cause for alarm
