Why Do I Have Body Itching, No Rash But Heaviness In Body After Sex?

I had sex last night and it was outside but my body itches all over and there is no rash and I have showered. I also feel heavy like my body is just weird. I have had sex before but this continues to be a continual feeling. I also have endometeriosis. Should I be concerned?

Hi,

You may be having generalised pruritus of unknown origin. I do not think for the relation of pruritus with sex you had. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis. Investigations may be done to find out some internal cause of pruritus.

The cause may be thyroid dysfunction,DM,anaemia, renal diseases, hepatic diseases...etc. You have endometriosis, the disease itself or its treatment might be the cause. But you doctor may decide. Antihistaminics like levocetirizine or hydroxyzine may be taken to improve itching. If needed , steroids in tappering dose may be taken. Avoid soap in bath. Apply steroid cream to have good result.

I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
