Next time you get a splitting headache, there may be a pleasant palliative:

Quote:

Sex appears to be a cure for headaches, researchers have suggested.

A team of neurologists found that sexual activity can lead to ?partial or complete relief? of head pain in some migraines. The study, from the University of Munster, Germany, suggests that instead of using a sore head as an excuse to refuse sex, making love can be more effective than taking painkillers.

Their research, reported in Cephalalgia, the journal of the International Headache Society, found that more than half of migraine sufferers who had sex during an episode experienced an improvement in symptoms. One in five patients left without any pain at all, while others, in particular male sufferers ?even used sexual activity as a therapeutic tool?, they added.

They suggested that sex triggered the release of endorphins, the body?s natural painkillers, through the central nervous system, which can in turn reduce, or even eliminate, a headache.

I'm a big believer in modern science and medicine.

Glad I am not alone.........

Although, I never had a woman of any nationality tell me she had a headache. Do women really do that or is it just an old wives tale?
