Excessive sexual activity can lead to temporary amnesia
Excessive sexual activity may lead to temporary total amnesia
According to foreign media reports on the 12th, scientific research shows that sex can make people excited, but sexual activity that is too intense or too frequent can lead to short-term memory. loss. Recently, a 54-year-old woman in Washington, USA, went to the hospital to seek medical treatment because she suddenly lost all memory of the past 24 hours after having sex.
Researchers explain that this rare condition is called "transient global amnesia." Although this symptom is temporary, it is extremely serious and can make people extremely worried.
But researchers are still unable to explain why sexual intercourse causes temporary amnesia. Researchers speculate that this may be related to insufficient oxygen supply to the brain. Ameliso, a researcher at the Argentinian Neurological Research Center, said: "We still don't know the cause of short-term memory loss, but it is obviously a wake-up call for the body. However, this has nothing to do with strokes and other brain injuries."
Surveys show that the chance of amnesia after sex is less than 5 in 100,000 per year. However, for people over 50 years old, the probability of occurrence is higher.
