In rare cases, having come can feel like a nightmare, like for example in the one where you are a man with POMS syndrome. It is a post-orgasmic syndrome that causes depression and flu-like symptoms after ejaculation. Fifty cases have been identified.

What if enjoyment became an ordeal? Admittedly, most of the time, sex is synonymous with pleasure. After sex is sometimes even more so: if everything went well, this moment of complicity with the person you love is generally a factor of appeasement and tranquility… Except in certain cases, where on the contrary, post-coitus can be painful! So what is SPMO, a very rare disease that seriously affects the state of physical and moral health of men after love?

Post-orgasmic sickness syndrome

Literally, SPMO means “post-orgasmic illness syndrome”. And as the name suggests, sadly, it stands for everything except the feeling of quietude most often evoked after orgasm. On the contrary, the victims of this disease feel countless ailments in the days following ejaculation.

The few men who testified cite various symptoms.ELLE identified them, and they are both physical (headaches, body aches, muscle pain, itchy nose and eyes) that moral : the syndrome is accompanied by anxiety and anguish related to the anticipation of these pains and discomforts.Still according to the magazine, these pains are partly due to “immuno-allergological failure with auto-allergy to seminal fluid”.

Three minutes of pleasure, three days of pain

Far from relaxing, the symptoms, which are extremely disabling, can last several days. Whatever we know that “the drop in dopamine, the hormone of pleasure and reward, and testosterone, the hormone of sexual desire“play a big role in the ensuing decrease in desire. No treatment has yet been found to cure this rare disease.

Moreover, because of guilt or shame (irrational) that affects those who are victims, only about fifty cases are identified. The magazine Neonnevertheless shares a rather encouraging study of Urology Case reports. In this one, it is indicated that small injections of testosterone under the skin would have allowed a patient to see the day again. Orgasmic news!
