A woman passed out mid-oral sex after her imminent orgasm caused a small stroke.

The unnamed 44-year-old was enjoying the fruits of her lover’s labor when she lost consciousness for two to three minutes.

He rushed her to the hospital, fearing she had suffered a fit.

When they arrived, the man told medics his partner’s body had gone stiff during the episode.

She felt sick when she arrived at the hospital and was suffering a nasty headache, which she scored as a 6 out of 10 on the pain scale.

CT scan showed burst aneurysm

Doctors led by Yunus Gokdogan at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital wrote in a BMJ case report: “On closer history taking, the patient reported nearing orgasm while receiving oral sex from her partner before losing consciousness.

Holmes J, Gokdogan Y. Subarachnoid haemorrhage: a sinister cause of transient loss of consciousness during oral sex. BMJ case reports 2019;12:e228014. http://casereports.bmj.com/content/12/3/e228014.abstract

Transient loss of consciousness (TLOC) is a common presentation to the emergency department and has a multitude of causes from benign to potentially fatal.

We describe the case of a young female presenting with TLOC during sexual activity that was subsequently diagnosed with subarachnoid haemorrhage.

She had normal neurology and only moderate headache.

She was subsequently transferred to a neurosurgical unit and underwent endovascular coiling of a small anterior communicating artery aneurysm.

She was discharged 15 days later without sequelae.
