Hi Guys
Just wanted to run this past you....
For years now, every time I have a really good session I develop tiny little red spots around my eye sockets and on my eye lids, which I'm assuming are broken blood vessels.
They clear up after a couple of days and aren't painfull in anyway.
I don't know if this is connected but I am multi - orgasmic and squirt frequently and I wondered if the effort of this is causing this effect.
Has anyone else experienced this ?
With the proviso that for an accurate answer you should probably consult a qualified healthcare professional, it sounds pretty reasonable to me.
Blood pressure rises when a person orgasms, and if you're mulit-orgasmic that would logically indicate a more prolonged period of raised blood pressure. If you've got particularly thin capiliaries or pale skin, then burst capiliaries due to this would give the symptoms you mention.
N.B. It might be worth mentioning it to your GP as burst capiliaries similar to the ones that you describe are characteristic in cases where somebody's been strangled or smothered - if you were unfortunate enough to go suddenly sood after a good session, your partner might find themselves under a lot of (hopefully) unwarranted suspicion if there's no mention of it on your medical records.
I think I've read somewhere that low iron absorption may attribute to this condition.
Any way some people just have naturally frail veins...
Nurses say some patients are easy to start an IV on while others are nearly impossible and the vein goes awol as soon as you touch it!
Also blood pressure may be an issue... but you can almost regulate that with diet & exercise...
But Please Please Please don't wait for us to give you an answer... get the doc to check it out
Diet & Exercise??? Always a good idea!!!
Garlic (preferably fresh but capsules are fine) is particularly good for these types of conditions i.e. hypertension / varicos veigns / blood shot eyes. It also helps the liver function "quicker", as your condition, although maybe brought on my sexual stimulation, can be a sign of too much alcohol or other toxins.

Well, I finally plucked up the courage to ring NHS Direct today and they have cautiously assured me that this isn’t a threat to my general health (thank god for that, imagine having to give up bonking!!) Like you Dawn, I also get this problem if I throw up, and that was discussed today with the nurse.
I think you guys are right, I do bruise easily and it is an absolute nightmare getting a blood sample from me, so this is probably happening because I have weak capillaries.
I'm still curious if any other women get this after an orgasm or two !
Thanks for not succumbing to temptation and replying with sexual innuendo, now I know I’m perfectly healthy feel free to let rip!!!
Oh good..... so what sexual inuendo can I now bring up ..... errrrrm thinking.... thinking.... no good, it was too serious a thread.
