> [@Der\_Trihs](#): > > Well, that’s what you get from having an orgasm while walking around. I recall a news story a while back about a woman who was in the habit of walking around with a sex toy inserted into herself, and whose hobby was discovered when she orgasmed, fell over and hit her head, knocking herself unconscious. Because the first thing the paramedics do when they find you unconscious is pull off your pants and check for dildos. 😕 ---

> [@\_Olive](#): > > If I start having them all the time I would be concerned. > > I have had other spontaneous orgasms in my adult life. They were always from over heating. Like cutting the grass or exercising. Sounds like seizures to me. There is actually research indicating that brain activity during seizures and brain activity during female orgasms appear quite similar to each other, so it may not be surprising that seizure-prone women report orgasmic feelings accompanying episodes. While you may or may not find the experience pleasurable, periodically losing control of your body unexpectedly during the course of daily life is definitely something your doctor will be concerned about. There are several medications that are known to cause these “seisuregasms,” too, so that may also be a factor. Bottom line: tell your doctor. ---

Every time I sneeze, I have an orgasm.” “That’s interesting - are you taking anything for it?” “Yes - pepper.” Regards, Shodan PS - yes, get to a doctor. ---

You all have me a little worried. I did take a new medication the night before. I have taken it since and had no problem. I actually took it when I didn’t need it hoping for the same results. \*\* colander\*\* I wouldn’t call what I had periodic. That was the only time I had that experience. The other spontaneous orgasms were 30 years ago, twice. And a few while sleeping. ---
