Neurology specialists study orgasmic headaches
A team of German doctors discuss treatment of "orgasmic headaches" in the journal Neurology. "There seem to be two basic patterns to these headaches: Type 1 usually begins as a dull pain that starts prior to orgasm, while type 2 has sudden onset, often described as a 'thunderclap' headache, that occurs within seconds of orgasm. . . . Most commonly, patients experience bouts of a few weeks duration in which HSA [headache with sexual activity] occurs in a large percentage of sexual activities and than spontaneously stop . . . The severe headache can last for up to 12 hours." Abstract.
