Passed Out After Anal Sex

Dear Sexperts,

After anal sex my heart started fluttering and I passed out. What would make this happen?

- Female, 40, United States

Answer:

Though this situation may not be serious, we cannot say for sure, so it would be best to contact your doctor. Your physician will be able to perform any tests that he or she thinks necessary. You may simply have experienced stress, or the anal penetration may have triggered some sort of reaction. However, this situation could potentially be indicative of a larger issue. Therefore, a medical consultation would be best. If you need information on low-cost health insurance, contact your local Planned Parenthood.

Feel free to write to us with any further questions. We wish you the best.

Sincerely,
The Sexperts
