For many people, toe-curling isn’t the only thing that can happen during an orgasm. From sudden headaches to sneezing, some surprising things go along with the Big O. Here are some of those curious phenomenons.
- Headaches
Post-orgasm headaches are common in men who suffer from migraines, according to the Mayo Clinic. It’s not totally understood why these headaches happen, though some experts believe it has to do with a spike in adrenaline coursing through the body during sex. - Crying
Experts aren’t quite sure why crying happens after coming, but given all the psychological and physiological changes that happen during sex, you can rest assured it’s fairly common. - Euphoria
“For some people, the euphoric feelings seem extra-intense,” a sex psychologist says. “Their mood is greatly improved, they feel more positive, and their self-esteem is elevated.” - Sneezing
Researchers speculate sneezing might have to do with crossed wires in the autonomic nervous system. “Certain functions that are automatic get a bit confused in the brain.” - Shaky legs
For women, shaky legs can be a result of all the tension building up around the muscles—not just in the genital area—during climax. When sex is over and the tension is released, some cramping, shaking or contractions can occur. Doctors recommend hydrating and eating something with potassium, like a banana.
