I feel like vomiting after having sex

Sep 09, 2013

I rarely have sex, but every time I do, I feel like throwing up. What could be the cause of this irritating feeling?

Dear Doctor,
I rarely have sex, but every time I do, I feel like throwing up. What could be the cause of this irritating feeling?

Dear Anon,
Feeling nauseous during sexual intercourse is rare. However, the likely causes of the condition are, perhaps, as you make love, you are on tension or not sure about your partner.
 
The nausea could also be a result of things you smell around you at that time; the oil, creams or perfume that your partner wears.
 
You need to consult a gynaecologist for medical investigations or a counselling psychologist.
