Dr. Green claims that sex can cause three different type of headaches – explosive, tension, and positional headaches. Explosive headaches refer to headaches that occur when an individual orgasms, and has similar symptoms as to that of a brain haemorrhage. A tension headache, on the other hand, is a result of stress, and usually goes away after 20 minutes. Positional headaches are often mild in nature, and can go away after 24 hours, but can sometimes be difficult to diagnose if it is caused by an epidural or spinal surgery.
However, Alexander Mauskop, neurologist and Director of the New York Headache Centre, did offer an alternate theory. He claimed that achieving orgasms can enable the release of ‘feel-good’ hormones known as endorphins, which could help in reducing the pain. These hormones are also dubbed as the human body’s pain killer. But this theory did come with a complexity of its own, as it also birthed the finding that certain individuals with migraines do not actually like physical contact due to sensitivity towards light, sound and touch.
So, Can I Have Sex to Relieve Migraine?
In short, yes, headaches can be relieved by the release of endorphins through the body. Based on various extensive studies, a majority of respondents feel the same way. But if sex does not work for you, try incorporating other activities that can help to release endorphins, such as exercise or indulging in laughter.
