Very often, an orgasm is compared to a small death. During sex, the body works at the limit of its capabilities: breathing quickens, the temperature rises, the pulse rolls over. For a weakened or sick body, such a load can be fatal. Let's see if death from orgasm can occur?
Causes
According to WHO (World Health Organization), about 50 thousand people die every year during sex. During intercourse, the whole body is in tremendous tension: pressure rises and body temperature rises, heart rate accelerates, a huge amount of hormones are released into the blood. This is a huge stress for the body. A healthy person after sex quickly bounces back, but a sick person may have problems.
Quite often, men take different stimulants during intimacy. Especially the situation is aggravated if, in addition to this, they still take alcohol. An overdose of these drugs or incompatibility with some of their components can be fatal.
During sex, a serious outflow of blood occurs, from which the heart and blood vessels can not stand. One of the most common causes of death during an orgasm is a stroke: the vessel bursts and a hemorrhage occurs in the brain, causing death. A blood clot that breaks off during sex can cause a heart attack or embolism.
There were cases when women died during oral sex from asphyxiation: they choked on sperm or a slipping condom. Another reason may be ill-conceived erotic games. During intercourse, it is quite easy from arousal to lose control of the situation and inadvertently kill a partner. This is especially true of smothering games, where a partner literally holds someone else's life in his hands.
Who is at risk
According to statistics, the risk of dying during sex for a man is 20 times greater than for a woman. This is due to the fact that it is on the stronger sex that a large load falls during intercourse. In addition, with age, sexual appetites usually fall in women, men, on the contrary, are up to the last sprightly. And the desire to show herself in all its glory to young lovers often ends with death from an orgasm.

- overweight people;
- people with irregular blood pressure.
