    Hi all

    Basically, the title. I have dizzy/fainting spells after sex, whether or not i've actually had an orgasm. I don't faint during other very strenuous exercise, including sprint training, and nor do i faint or have dizzy spells after masturbating. I don't have low blood pressure. I am 191cm (6'3") tall and i weigh 84 kgs (185 lbs).

    this ever happen to anyone else? could it be a result of hyperventilation?

    maybe you are really getting into it. I had to stop masterbating after working out because I was in such a heightened state of physical exertion that it took the rest of my energy out of me.

    Just be careful. Often sex, and the high that sex can cause your brain to overload in a way....I dunno talk to your doctor about it.

    well, I guess it makes sense. Blood is rushing to your lower parts, and oxygen is being take away from your brain. I would mention this to your doctor just to be safe.

    Happened to me. Once it was finished I literally fainted on the bathroom floor. It was pretty bad. :/

    I guess that means it isn't uncommon. Maybe its just to much the first time that causes it?

    The same thing happened to my friend it was because he is anemic. The lack of iron in his blood made it so that when he got an erection and climaxed he passed out. (I only know this cause he made me go to the doctors with him)

    I actually have completely fainted after sex. Of course, I was 10,000 feet above sea level, it was post-orgasm after half an hour of sex, and I was leaping out of a hot tub. In short, it was a really really really bad idea. :slight_smile:

    How long do your sex sessions normally last?

    anything from 10 minutes to an hour or more, it doesn't seem to make a terrible amount of difference. I have to stand up very carefully after stopping, i have collapsed a number of times, but luckily never been hurt
