Headaches during orgasm?

Hey.

I recently started masturbating and using vibrators, but it seems like every time I'm about to orgasm or I orgasm, I get this horrible headache. At first I thought nothing of it but now it's starting to irritate me, and affect my ability to orgasm because I'm worried of the painful headache that will follow. I'm also a virgin, so I'm scared to get into relationship and become intimate with that person, knowing what it will lead to. :erm:

I know that I can just take paracetamol but I don't want to resort to that every time I want to masturbate and possibly become dependant on them.

Are headaches after orgasm normal? How can I stop them from happening?

Sounds like coital cephalalgia... http://www.patient.co.uk/doctor/primary-sexual-headache

See a GP?

That's what I initially though, but then I kept seeing that it might be a brain aneurysm on other sites and got scared haha.

It could be but I tend not to go super fast (oh my gosh :facepalm::tongue:) and I get so worried that nowadays, I can't go 'all the way'

Generally, I wouldn't always go with the most extreme suggestion!

My friend experienced this a while back and later found out that the batteries inside the vibrator were leaking and it could be going inside your...stuff. You should go to a hospital immediately and get it checked out
I sometimes get mild headaches after I've come, but I'm a bloke so I don't know how similar our situations would be.

I'm always being told that haha, but I suffer from anxiety so I'm always googling symptoms and think that I have the worst one :s-smilie:

Ahh. I've read that it can happen to both males and females. How long would yours last for?

Not that long, it goes along with feeling kind of drained and tired generally.
