So I had my first orgasm while standing the other day while I was in the shower and right after, I felt really light headed and wanted to sit down. One of my friends told me he has had similiar experiences and I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else? If so is there a way I can keep this light headed feeling from occuring?

I usually get light headed starting with intense stimulation if I'm standing. I always start to sink to the floor and my husband has to hold me up. I have no idea how to stop it though. I've learned to just go with it!

Thats exactly how I feel, the first time it happened I didnt have anyone to hold me up lol. I'm glad I'm not the only one though

You aren't the only one!! My bf usually has to help me stay up if we are in the shower. I'm sure there is some scientific reasoning behind it, but you get used to it after a while. The one tip I have: be careful if you are both a little tipsy, lol.

Thats how I usually am, so when this happened it was the first time I have ever been able to orgasm while standing.

I cannot for the life of me get off while standing up-- and not for lack of trying! That said, are you sure it was the standing up that did it? I often get light-headed when I orgasm in the bath/shower, and I've found that drinking a glass of water beforehand helps.

Maybe it was the heat of the shower? Not really sure. Thanks for the tip. I'm not sure that I will be able to orgasm while standing again (I was shocked that I was able to in the first place), but if I plan on trying again, I will drink more water

I've never had an orgasm while standing up. I've tried in the shower but just ended up down on my knees. My partner can do it and I don't understand how.

Me dos. At least, I imagine it'd take a lot more work because it usually just doesn't happen.

I love having orgasms standing up!! But its too uncomfortable to do the entire thing that way. I like doing it sitting and then standing up right at the end when its starting. Love the head rush and wobbly legs!

Yep my legs turn to rubber after having an orgasm so hubby needs to be right close to hold me

I have hard time orgasming in the standing position which makes quickies under the shower rare. Doesn't matter whether I use water pressure or a vibe. If I decide to do it the orgasm is pretty good and drawn out but I usually end up with sore thighs the next day.

This is why I usually can't masturbate in the shower. I get SOOO dizzy. Standing straight up in general after an orgasm, but I get so much more dizzy in the shower.

On the other hand, sex in the shower is worth it, though. Oh, SO worth it!

Might not have been related to standing at the time

I have never had one standing up, now that I'm thinking about it. I always end up on my knees or back or something. Now I need to try it... but I do know that I can't walk immediately after having one because I am dizzy.

I get weak too! I think we just don't notice it when we're lying down because we're already lying down, but I've definitely noticed it when I have had orgasms standing.

I wonder, do guys have this same problem?

8/10 times my fiance is standing when he orgasms. His legs get shakey and he usually puts some of his weight on me when I'm bent over for support. Never mentioned anything about being lightheaded though. He actually prefers to be standing whether it's sex or i'm giving him oral, told me it feels better.

After reading this thread I had to try this. The first time I wasn't ready for the effects and I just collapsed. Embarrasing!! I tried it again the next day and I was determined to stay standing. I managed it but it was a close thing. My legs shook and all the strength drained out. weak as a kitten! I have to admit it was fun though. I will be adding this to my regular ways of having an orgasm by myself.

This has happened to me...I can stay standing, but a nice alternative that I have found (just to be safe!) is to kneel. It's like standing, only you're on your knees, so it's much less of a fall if you do topple over.

Standing makes you lightheaded.

Yeah, I've gotten lightheaded if I'm standing like that. It's usually in the shower and warm, so that probably doesnt help. Otherwise, I'm not sure.
