Q & A: I cry after sex!

Love and Libido

Have you ever been having a perfectly enjoyable sexual experience only to find yourself uncontrollably sobbing afterward? There are lots of reasons why someone might cry after sex, but most of the time, it’s because of something called post-coital dysphoria. And it’s more common than you might think. Studies have found that nearly half of all women experience this at some point in their lives. We’ll talk all about this condition and I’ll also give tips on how to handle it if this happens to your partner during sex.
