Hi.

It appears you may be experiencing a condition known as sex headaches. Sex headaches associated with orgasm may be a response to increased blood pressure which causes dilation of blood vessels in the brain.

Although sex headaches are not usually a cause for concern, it would be best to consult a physician if this is the first time you have experienced such headaches as there might be an underlying problem that would need to be addressed.

Good luck.
