Could you be lying funny? Pins and needles is the pressure on a nerve making some of the nerves go a bit hyperactive, and others go numb.

Try not staying in the same position for ages.

Could be a sign of bad circulation maybe ?

Hey.. Strange question but does anyone (particularly girls?) experience bad pins and needles after/during sex?? After I had sex last night I found myself almost seized up in pain with pins and needles in my hands/arms. I wasn't doing anything with my arms that would have brought this on...

Anyone had the same thing??

Maybe you're being punished for it? ...
I have exactly the same problem - pins and needles in one hand so bad I couldnt move it at all, was like having a claw instead of fingers!

Kind of embaressing to be honest......

:wink: ummm... heavy breathing. hyperventilation causes pins and needles. consider this.
I get cramp sometimes... but during sex... that's annoying!

on the side of your hip? i get that too, always at the wrong moment. I also cracked a rib once. The man in question thought he was super good.
I find that I get terrible foot cramps, even during sex, especially if I am underneath. (Girl).

Maybe your both pushing it too hard. Stop and give each other time to enjoy. If it still happens both stop and stand up walk about.

Gah! I know.

Eat more salt.
Just think, no sex...........wow no pins and needles
I get pins and needles in my hand, and it goes into a retarded shape, but it doesn't hurt.
My girlfriend's face tingles fiercely when we have sex. Don't know about other bits of her though.
my face tingles sometimes. I get scared I'm havin a brain haemorrhage. But I guess I'm not, cos I'm fine afterwards. But it's damn annoying!!
I felt the pins and needles pain today.I took a couple of minutes to subside . I felt it in my chest and arms ... Very scary
