Frequent headaches during sexual intercourse, sometimes lasting for 4 hours. Is there any other treatment besides avoiding sexual activity?
Sexual headache, also known as sexual intercourse headache and Orgasm headache, is an easily recognized disease.
It is mainly divided into two types. One is similar to the headache caused by pressure. The pain is usually located at the back of the head. With the intensification of Libido, the pain will also increase; One only appears before or at the time of Orgasm, with a sense of bursting and pain. For the first type of sexual headache, its onset is related to tension headache and Muscle contraction. The prevention method is to consciously relax the muscles of the neck, jaw and shoulder before and during sexual life. Relaxation exercises at these parts at ordinary times are helpful to prevent headache.
In order to rule out potential lesions in the brain, it is best to go to the hospital for diagnosis and undergo angiography of the brain and its surrounding areas.
Especially for the second type of headache that occurs during the first attack, more attention should be paid to it.
If the cause is clear, but the treatment effect is not good, the sexual life can be ended before the arrival of Orgasm, and the duration of headache can be shortened. Under the guidance of the doctor, you can also take a moderate amount of migraine drugs and β Receptor blockers can be used to prevent headache attacks, and medication can also be taken under the guidance of a doctor to shorten the duration of the headache.
In addition, research has shown that fear, unease, and sadness related to sexual activity can also have a negative impact on harmonious sexual relationships, leading to sexual headaches. If this situation occurs, one should discuss the disharmonious factors in sexual relationships with their partner and doctor, and seek help from a psychologist if necessary.
