Sex is meant to make us feel good, but sometimes our bodies have other ideas.
One of the rare but certainly unwanted side effects of intercourse is feeling sick afterwards - and it can put a serious dampener on your post-coital bliss.
According to Dr Leila Frodsham, consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist and spokesperson for the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, while it's incredibly rare, some people may feel nauseous after sex.
And if you've experienced it, then it could be down to endometriosis or possibly overstimulation of the cervix, which is highly sensitive.

Naturally many women would associate feeling that way with morning sickness - especially if they're trying to get pregnant.
But, reassuringly for women who aren't trying to conceive, the unpleasant symptom is most likely nothing to do with pregnancy, due to the fact morning sickness usually kicks in around two weeks after a missed period or when you're around six weeks gone.
However, it could point towards other underlying health issues.
If you suffer from endometriosis, a painful condition where tissue similar to the lining of the womb starts to grow in other places, the pelvic pressure you experience during sex could induce feelings of nausea, especially if it's around your time of the month.
Dr Frodsham said: 'Post-coital nausea rarely presents as a form of sexual dysfunction and may have many causes.
Endometriosis occurs when cells in the lining of the womb are found elsewhere in the body.
Each month, these cells react in the same way as those in the womb; building up, breaking down and bleeding. Yet, the blood has no way to escape the body.
Symptoms include pain, heavy periods and fatigue, as well as a higher risk of infertility, and bowel and bladder problems.
Its cause is unknown but may be genetic, related to problems with the immune system or exposure to chemicals.
Treatment focuses on pain relief and improving quality of life, which may include surgery or hormone treatment.
'If the underlying cause is from endometriosis or stimulation of the cervix or ovaries, a change of position or device to minimise depth of penetration might be of benefit.'
'If you experience any type of intercourse that is painful, you should see a gynecologist.'
Stimulation to the cervix - the narrow passage forming the lower end of the uterus - can be painful due to it being highly sensitive, which may in turn bring on a wave of nausea.
Dr Lauren Streicher, a clinical professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Northwestern University, explained that your cervix changes during your cycle and drops lower during your period, making you more susceptible to feeling nauseous after sex, sometimes to the point of passing out.
She told POPSUGAR : 'Contact with your cervix during sex — or cervical stimulation — can create a vasalvagol response in which your blood pressure and pulse drop.'
If your night of passion followed a big meal out, you may experience bloating or constipation which can also make you feel somewhat worse for wear.
Feeling sick after sex doesn't necessarily mean there's something physically wrong. If it's happening frequently, it could be your body's way of telling you you're with the wrong person - or still battling with ghosts from your past.

Nausea could be a symptom of a psychological condition known as sexual aversion disorder, which can stem from prior negative sexual experiences or 'off-putting thoughts' you may associate with sex, according to sexual and marital therapy website Basmt .
Dr Frodsham said: 'If a woman has concerns and/or any symptoms, she should speak to her healthcare professional who can help with symptoms, identify an underlying cause and treat the condition.'

So i got my period on either Nevember 19th or the 20th, i had unprotected sex on the 26th and also on the 27th. I had sex probably three or four times with both of the days put together. I have been feeling really tired but it is hard too fall asleep and i also have been feeling sick too my stomach. Does this mean that i could be pregnant?

You could be. Pregnancy symptoms are different from woman to woman. However, one of the most significant pregnancy symptoms is a delayed or missed menstrual cycle. These are the most common pregnancy symptoms: implantation bleeding (spotting and ramping); missed menstruation; swollen or tender breasts; feeling tired; morning sickness; headache; frequent urination; the skin around your nipples may get darker; craving to eat pickles or ice cream. If you think you could be pregnant do the test and you’ll know.

Im the same person that posted that one that you answered too, I have been starting to have a headache the past two days now, my back is not so much hurting but it hurts but not bad. My stomach has been hurting a lot more durning the night going into the morning where it is hard for me too sleep at night and for me too stay asleep. Would it be too soon to take a pregnancy test right now?

Well, it depends on the sensitivity of the test. Some tests can be used up to four days before you expect your period. If you've already bought one just read the instruction. But it's been almost two weeks, so I suppose that it wouldn't be too soon to take a pregnancy test right now.

I have been having white discharger lately and yesterday i noticed that when i was going too the bathroom i got a really bad pain in my stomach and my neck and back have been hurting but my back hasnt been hurting more then my neck. I havent been throwing up or anything but i feel like im going too but i dont.

That sounds like a PMS symptoms to me. Maybe your period is about to come.

I dont usually get this way when im about too get my period. And my period isnt suppose too come until uhmm the 18th.
