Question:
I'm a female in her 30's who recently experienced something very unusual during a sexual encounter -- and while it was intriguing, I wanted to quickly check it wasn't a sign of a problem!
It wasn't even during intercourse; my partner was stimulating me manually, when I began to feel a tingling in my own hands as if they had "fallen asleep". The tingling, pins-and-needles feeling then gradually spread up my arms, into my face, then down to my chest, and gradually throughout my entire body. And then it got stronger -- still the same pins-and-needles tingling, but double the intensity. It was so strong in one of my hands, I actually wasn't able to move it.
My partner finally brought me to an orgasm, but the tingling was still there; it stayed that intense for another five minutes or so, before gradually fading, first out of my chest, then my face, then down my arms and ending in my hands again. My partner said he could feel my hands shaking, but that was all.
I haven't felt anything like this before; it wasn't unpleasant, but I just wanted to check it wasn't a sign of some odd medical problem. It's occurred to me that I had recently taken an over-the-counter cold medication that had an antihistamine; could that have had THAT effect?
Please advise...thank you!

Dear Madam
Thank you for your consultation. I am not sure I have heard of a similar experience before. It MAY be however related to the drug you took. These drugs sometimes have some effects on the blood vessels and may lead to what you expericned. Now, you should stop the medications and observe. If this one time was all, then probably it is nothing. If it recurs, it deserves a visit to your doctor.Reviewed by: Patricia Fawver Ph.D. in Sexology
