Hi, i am a 15yr old male incase the above says otherwise. I masturbate frequently but recently have had a problem. I occasionaly get sharp pains in my head for a short while (for about 15-30mins). Also, I don't know if this is relevant but I think I am goign through puberty but I am not sure.

I have masturbated for about a year now and I have never had this problem before and I really don't want to see a doctor or talk to anyone I know.

Is this a problem?

Any help welcomed and if you need more info, just ask! Thanks...

olderthandirt agony auntI'm not a doc or an ferbalist but common sense tells me the best way to answer that question would be to lay off for a week to see if the headach goes away. If it does then change up to every other day and so on. Once you find a happy medium, you can proceed with your self gratification.

A male reader, heinz4084 United States +, writes (6 March 2010):

Masturbation makes you feel headache. Masturbate also makes your brain become dull. I suggest you to drink 2 cups of green tea after masturbate. Green tea will remove the headache. The headache caused by masturbation is different from the usual headache that you got when you have fever. After masturbate (with semen coming out) the headache felt inside the skull. If there is climax ejaculation with climax semen is coming out from your sexual organ, you will get headache. If little semen or no semen is coming out, you will get no headache. I found that green tea to cure the headache by coincidence. I have suffered from masturbation headache more than a decade. Here is my story how I meet the green tea. One day I went to other country as a tourist and stayed in a 5 star hotel. It was the first time I stayed in a 5 star hotel. In the hotel I found green tea. I am not familiar with its taste. After going home from holiday I bought the same green tea. I masturbate as usual many times in a week and I drank the tea. After drinking I found that my headache diminished with one cup and vanish after the second cup. I was a bit surprised. First I thought it was coincidence but every time I drink the green tea after masturbate I found that my headache diminished or prevented before it obviously felt.

Here I give you the link about the green tea that I usually drink. It is OSK Japanese green tea. I recommend you to drink high quality Japanese green tea like this one because I am not sure about other low grade green tea. I masturbate thousands times from my childhood and I have suffered from headache more than 10 year before I found green tea. Thank to god who makes me meet the green tea by coincidence.

Believe my story. Try the green tea if you feel headache, tiredness, dreamless sleep, dehydration-like fatigue (actually it is not dehydration but you might feel like dehydrated after masturbate for a long period of time e.g. after months or years, even if you drink many cups of plain water won’t cure). Green tea helps the above problems but it does not cure erectile dysfunction.

Tips for preparing the OSK Japanese green tea to maximize its benefits.

(1) Boil the tap water

(2) Put the tea bag inside the cup (a cup which is medium or big size)

(3) Pour the hot water into the cup. It is better that the hot water hit tea bag while you pour it.

(4) Use a spoon. Stir it left to right or right to left. Left to right and back to left is counted as one time. After that from left again move to right and move back to left is counted as 2 times. Stir at least 160 times or more or 200 times until it is deep green.

(5) Drink it while it is still hot or warm. Finish it while it is still warm. After masturbate I don’t recommend you to drink it if it is already cool.

(6) Make the second cup and prepare it as instructed above and drink it while it is still hot or warm.

I agree that you should document times and dates that you masterbate and times and dates when you get headaches...this way you could see cleary if they correlate in time. The other advice I would have is to not masterbate for a month and see if you are headache free for that period of time, the reason I recommend a month is because I read that it takes that amount of time for chemicals to adjust from the brain release of orgasm. If you are looking at a computer moniter for long periods of time that could certainly lead to headaches. Figure all that out before you go to the doctor or he/she will only be playing a guessing game, headaches are caused by many things, including stress and lack of oxygen or not enough water....good luck and let us know what you find out.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (1 July 2008):

What you're describing sounds like cluster headaches, which are sometimes associated with migraine. You're a bit young, maybe, to be experiencing them, but if you've hit puberty, that'd be abt right. Migraine is a neurological disorder that's not entirely understood, but we do know that it's tied, in part, to vaso-dilation (the blood vessels in your head getting really dilated). This is why you can feel the throbbing -- it's actually your pulse in all the veins, capillaries, etc., in your head. It's also why caffeine (which is a vaso-constrictor) can sometimes help relieve a migraine (you'll note that it's one of the ingredients in Excedrin Migraine) - it clamps the blood vessels down to a smaller size.

I'm a girl, so I don't know from personal experience, but I'm told that a guy's erection pulls a lot of blood from other parts of his body. I don't know exactly how that would affect the blood vessels in your head, but it makes sense to me that they could be related. Or maybe it's just total coincidence.

In any event, if you're having a high load of headache pain at other times of the day, it's something worth discussing with your doctor. There are many lifestyle modifications you may wish to consider (some ppl have food triggers, etc.), and if those don't work, there are medications that may help.

Danielepew agony auntMasturbation doesn't produce headaches. Go see a doctor because the headaches you have had all of your life surely have a different cause, and THAT you need to have checked. You don't have to mention masturbation; the doctor knows the two are not related.

lexilou agony auntIf you are more prone to headaches then think about it, when you masturbate you probably concentrate very hard and screw your eyes shut tight, unless of course you are looking at pictures!! I somtimes go a bit dizzy when I have had to really work at getting somewhere (yes women masturbate too!!!!)

So go the docs, please, just dont mention the masturbation just tell him youve had some real bad headaches lately and are worried xx

The Gentle Man agony auntI used to suffer from constant headaches and they did come on fiercly when I masturbated or even tapped my head. I went to the doctor and he gave me a course of tablets which got rid of the problem.

Going to the Doctor is the best thing to do.

It probably isn't anything to worry about. I've read that adrenaline and endorphins (which build when you're getting turned on), quickly diminish after reaching orgasm. This drastic change happening in such a short time could be the cause the sharp pains you've described.

i shouldn't think it would be related to masturbating, but i would surely recommend seeing a doctor about this. If you really dont want to see a doctor then speak to a mate about it. surely u wont feel embarrased there. and before anything make sure you try like a paracetamol. They always help my headaches.

but good luck with it mate.

no_issues agony auntEverything is linked to masturbation, when you think about it. As for doctors, if you don't want to ask your regular doctor for whatever reason ask him for a referral to someone else. Or go to an anonymous STD clinic -- they won't even ask your real name, and will pretend you were never there.

lexilou agony auntok you need to work out if you only get the pains when you masturbate or at any other time.

If you just get them at all times you must see your doctor, its always best to get it checked. Even if you only get them when you masturbate you should still be checked out. I have read somewhere that some men do get headaches after ejaculating but I dont know how common it is. If you spoke to a male doctor so you are more comfy then dont worry about having to mention masturbation, he is not there to judge you and trust me he has probably heard it all before x

Ok. I'll think about a doctor but I did leave something out, I have suffered with headaches all my life, do you think it could be a coincidence that I had a couple while masturbating?

A male reader, ChiRaven United States +, writes (30 June 2008):

ChiRaven agony auntIt's unlikely that the two are related, but there is the possibility that the headaches could be related to a change in blood pressure that comes with orgasm. If you haven't had a thorough physical exam for a while it would probably be a good idea to have one. This could be a symptom of a more serious condition that requires medical attention.

And by all means make sure you have time with the doctor by yourself, and mention the situation to him. You can't embarrass a doctor with anything like that, and yes, there are two kinds of people in this world, those who admit they masturbate and those who lie about it.
