Sex-Induced Stroke

Sex- and Orgasm-Induced Stroke
Rare…but possible

dr heart stroke women health


Sex caused a 35-year-old woman with life-threatening stroke. Though rare, sex and orgasm triggered strokes are not unheard of.


"This young woman ... while having intercourse had numbness on the left side of her face, slurred speech, and weakness in her left arm," Biller tells WebMD. "When she was transferred to our care six hours after onset, she was completely unable to move her left arm, her face was paralyzed, her speech was garbled, and she was in a state of panic."

Although it was too late to give the woman a clot-busting drug, which must be given within three hours of a stroke, the medical team acted swiftly using a different technique to un-clot the blood – sparing the young woman her life and long-term effects of the stroke.

Reading the article, I panicked a little. Sex is after all a healthy connecting point in many loving relationships. Does that mean we should stop having sex or achieving orgasm?

Thankfully not!
"You have to keep this risk of stroke during sex in perspective. The risk is very low.

they always say that dying during sex would be the way to go, but to have a stroke is like going halfway. Lucky she recovered, though...

I'm sure there's a line in there somewhere - but I simply don't want to go near it.

Cheers

Hi Lara,

At my age, this is good information to know *chuckle* ..somethings gotta give, right?

Sadly, more common as more and women try to be the boss of the boardroom and bedroom. Is there a female viagra out there yet?

Lilla ...

I'll say... Tracy, though she it was at the same time a medical problem.



It is good to know, Lilla. At least now we won't just shrug it off but will head to the E.R as soon as possible.



Sorry to hear that, Jarrah. As much as it seems like it's funny, it is at the same time a serious matter...thanks for sharing.


Sure is a big risk, Ash At least we now know what's at stake and what we can/should do.
