I have experienced the extreme bloating after sex multiple times. I have noticed that it doesn't matter if I have an orgasm or not, it just happens sometimes. I've also discovered certain positions make it worse, as if it pushes air into me, causing the excruciating bloating feeling afterward. Today I experienced the worst yet. After my boyfriend and I had sex, the bloating feeling started and it got worse and more painful by the second. Like extremely unbearable pain to where I didn't know what to do and just wanted to DIE! I ran to the bathroom and sat on the toilet trying to poop or something to release whatever was building up inside. It was so hard to do so, and I suddenly started experiencing an intense heat flash and light-headedness with vomiting. My boyfriend did not know what to do and was worried. I ended up throwing up and pooping at the same time, all the while with heat flash, pale face, light-headedness and bloating pain. Overall, it all lasted for like 10 minutes.. 10 minutes of the most unbearable pain I've ever experienced! I called my mom and told her about it and she couldn't relate at all. I do have trouble pooping often and sometimes just can't go at all. I wonder if these two things are related.

Did you ever find out what was going on? I have just recently starting having the exact same things happen to me but it lasts days and sometimes even for a few days just not as intense as at first. I would love to know what is happening and what can be done to fix this. It doesn't happen every time just once in awhile but it is just so bad, I have to find a fix for this. Thank you.

Hey I had the same thing happen twice to me. My husband and I figured out what caused this pain and all. We had a fan on us both times that I had this exact thing happen. It caused a lot of air to get inside of me. It resided after about 30 mins. But I didn't have trouble having a bm. I hope this helps you

I had sex for the first time on the 12 of this month and again on the 19 this second time the position was a bit different and I'm feeling a bit bloated and gassy and I can't really blow out my stomach does that mean I'm pregnant?

Alrighty, so i had sex with my boyfriend of almost 5 months, and it was protected, meaning i had used a condom, 2 of the 4 times i did it was with also spermicide, and i am currently on the depo shot (3 1/2 months) and last week was my first time. See, i have been having gassy/upset stomach stuff and had a little tough time going number 2. Its getting a little better, but i want to be sure. I would like to know what to do with the gassy/upset stomach (potty thing). Also, since im on the shot, it is hard to keep track of my period because i usually just spot. 3/4 times we did it i bled a little, first time was a bit more. It didn't hurt though. But, i was told eventually i may not have much of any period because of the shot. Please help, we were fully protected! I just really would like these questions of mine answered! :/ thanks
