What Causes Headache During Intercourse?
Hi!
I'm a 57 year old male in good overall health. Within the last 2 weeks I've noticed that when having sex with my wife I'll start with a fairly intense headache (sometimes around the forehead or over the top of my skull) as I start to reach a climax. The heachache will subside in about 5 - 10 minutes after sex.
What type of specialist should I see about this condition and how serious do you feel it might be?
