Headache after orgasm, any sexual activity. COITAL HEADACHE?

Resolved Question:

Hi I want to check if I have a coital headache or not, I experienced the headache right before orgasm(which happened two days ago) and since then anytime I work out or engage in any sexual activity i experience a throbbing headache. Is this just a normal sex headache that will go away in a couple of days or does this sound like something much more serious.

Hello,
Thank you for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com
I have noted your headaches and most probably, these headaches could be simple sex-related headaches that could go away in a few days.
Sometimes, vascular headache (migraines) can get worse with sexual activity or exercises.
In very rare cases, if the headaches are persistent or recurrent, we need to exclude vascular malformations within the brain.
I hope it helps.
Best wishes,
