I've been experiencing some real issues after I masturbate. First, I get really dizzy and then it turns into vertigo. It's pretty intense. After a bit, it leads to vomiting and I also have to deal with highly pressurized stool. The vertigo just doesn't quit and can last up to 8 hours. I'm kind of at a loss here and Im wondering who I should talk to about this. Any ideas on whats going on or whom I should consult?

The symptoms you're experiencing after masturbation, such as dizziness, vertigo, vomiting, and stool, are not typical and may indicate an underlying condition.
Possible Causes
- Vasovagal Syncope: A reflex that causes a sudden drop in blood pressure, leading to dizziness and fainting.
- Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS): A condition characterized by a rapid heart rate and other symptoms that occur upon standing.
- Migraine or Vestibular Migraine: A type of migraine that affects the vestibular system, causing vertigo and other symptoms.
- Gastrointestinal Issues: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or other gastrointestinal conditions may be contributing to your symptoms.
What to Do
- Consult a Primary Care Physician: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician to discuss your symptoms and determine the underlying cause.
- Keep a Symptom Journal: Record your symptoms, including when they occur, how long they last, and any potential triggers.
- Avoid Triggers: If you suspect that masturbation is triggering your symptoms, consider avoiding or reducing the frequency of this activity until you consult a doctor.
Specialists to Consider
- Cardiologist: If your doctor suspects a heart-related condition, such as POTS or vasovagal syncope.
- Neurologist: If your doctor suspects a neurological condition, such as a migraine or vestibular disorder.
- Gastroenterologist: If your doctor suspects a gastrointestinal condition, such as GERD or IBS.

View allI'm really struggling with something that's been bothering me a lot. It's like my mind and mouth just aren't in sync, and I can't seem to get my thoughts into words. I find myself stuttering and speaking really fast, which makes my speech unclear. Plus, the tone and accent of my speech seem off, and I have trouble pronouncing words within sentences. It's getting to the point where people can't understand me easily. Can you offer some advice or guidance on what might be causing this and what I can do about it?

I've noticed that my left leg and arm seem to go numb pretty often when I'm sleeping. It happens more on the left side, and I'm starting to get a bit worried. Also, during sex, I've felt like my heart is somewhat heavier than usual. I'm just curious if these things are connected or if I should be concerned. Any ideas on what might be causing these symptoms?
My left leg and left arm get numb more frequently while sleeping. This could be due to poor blood circulation or nerve compression. I recommend trying Vitamin B complex supplements to improve nerve health. Additionally, consider using a magnesium supplement to help with muscle relaxation and blood flow. For the feeling of a heavier heart during sex, it is important to monitor your heart health. I suggest taking low-dose aspirin daily to help with blood flow and consulting a cardiologist for further evaluation.
