Contributor: AshMegYo AshMegYo
I've heard of it easing away headaches but someone has told me it can ease cramps, too. Crazy! Lol Have you ever used sex for something like this? (as a way to ease some sort of pain?)

I've tried it for headaches. It'll work for a small headache, but not for a migraine. It seems to make those worse. At least mine. Never tried it for cramps. If I'm cramped up, the last thing I'm thinking about is sex. Maybe next time I'll try it though, just to see.

Yes, a good orgasm or two can totally make cramps feel better.

I have heard it helps with a lot of different pain. Helps with the pain threshold. I reach for a vibe as often as I reach for an Advil.

Yes, and it works pretty well.

I have tried and it works usually for a regular headache. Today I had a (well still am dealing with) a horrible migraine and we had sex to see if it would help, but it didn't . I think it doesn't work for migraines because I tend to squeeze/tense up when things are getting good and I'm getting there.

Definitely works for mild cramps, though if they are very bad it's not going to be forefront on my mind!

Hell no. Sex makes both my migraines and my cramps extremely bad. I have endometriosis though so I have to be oh so careful with anything I do--I get intense pain. Sex is nearly impossible when I'm having cramps. I'm usually doubled over, holding my breath. I'll have sex with a headache, but it NEVER helps my headache, but always makes it worse. If it's minor, I'll still have sex and enjoy it, then just take a BC as soon as we're done. Often times I'll try relieving my migraines with a BC and ice pack before sex too. I don't like skipping on sex! LOL. I highly doubt it actually eases pain for those who suffer severely.

Sometimes it'll help, but usually not. Depends on the month. :-(

Agreed. It helps with small headaches if you catch it early. I haven't tried it with a migraine because I've never felt up to it. My husband gets bad migraines often and I tried offering him a HJ to see if it helped. He didn't have to move or anything, just lay there... He said it felt better AS he orgasmed, but immediately after it was worse than before.

I'll have sex during my period (shower only) but haven't tried when I'm cramping really badly. I don't even want to get out of bed then LOL

Yes. In fact I do use it as a general pain killer a lot.

Cramps, yes. They are awesome for that. Headache, no. It makes mine worse (probably from tensing up as I get close), but I hear there are those that it helps.

Orgasms are my favorite treatment for cramps. I won't get bad cramps again for about an hour.

I tell myself that the only way to relieve a headache is to chase the blood elsewhere. Therefore, I must play and play until I've run the headache away.

Works for me.

Having food in my system is the best cure for cramps, but I don't mind trying anyway.

Definitely. Even if I'm not in the mood and I have a headache or cramps, I get my boyfriend to have sex with me. Cramps and headaches may make it hard for you to get horny, but once you get turned on, your headache and cramps go away almost immediately.

The only downside for me is, they almost immediately come back after we're done. So, pop two advil before you have sex, and by the time sex is over with, the advil should start kicking in!

No, it always seems to make mine worse.

Yes! I use my vibe for headaches all the time. If it doesnt make it go away, it at least eases it and distracts me.

I use my fairy massager daily for such things. Works amazing on aches and pains + if your aware of where your Acupressure points are you can easily use that to relieve headaches and other things. I've heard orgasms relieve pain too.

Maybe cramps.

I might be laying on my stomach anyway and like masturbation on my stomach best. But I might also be in too much pain to try.

I probably wouldn't for a headache. I never get bad headaches, or mega rarely do to the point that I've never noticed how I handle those situations

For headaches, I've found that sex tends to make them worse :\

The pain/discomfort will go away during the act. But then after the orgasm, it seems like it comes back even worse than before.

yeah it can be a good pain killer. Especially for period cramps if your parnter is ok with having sex during that time

I've done with masturbation before, but full-on sex on my period would just be too weird, for me personally. Masturbation is great for easing cramps.
