How To Confirm High Blood Pressure?
Hi,ello,
Last night during sexual intercourse, I experienced a sudden onset headache right before orgasm, then it quickly faded. Researching today I've seen that this could be a symptom of high blood pressure, and today I feel off. Should i seek medical attention? may I answer your health queries right now ? P
