Sex when you don't feel well

Contributor: Silverdrop Silverdrop
When I'm sick, especially with a cold, I don't want to be touched. Don't want to masturbate. Don't want to even think about it. I remember one time with my ex, I had completely lost my voice, and he decided he was in the mood. Since I couldn't tell him no, I had to just keep pushing him away from me and shaking my head. He kept trying to coax me until I was finally rude enough that he got the point.

It depends on how sick I am. We'll still mess around most of the time.

As long as it's not a stomach thing. I'm OK with a cold, and I always have a headache, so as long as it isn't "ice pack, heating pad and 2 Vicodin" level migraine, sex usually makes me feel better. Sometimes I can't give proper head with a cold, but I always try. If I start dripping on him (EW GROSS!) or making very unsexy snorking noises then we'll have to figure out something else to do, sexually. We always do.

Depends on how sick. Last night I was coughing for forty-five minutes straight and could barely get a breath in. I told my husband we could still try if he wanted, but I wasn't making any promises on how long I'd be able to last. He said he'd wait 'till I felt better. LOL! If I'm running fever, don't touch me. The sniffles I can work with.

Nobody with a 45 minute coughing fit is going to feel like having sex. I can agree with that, completely.

I hope you feel better. There's some stuff going around, my kids and I have colds and our little one has totally lost her voice.

Get plenty of of caffeine free or low caffeine (tea is fine, coffee not so much, unless you need a cup to prevent a headache) fluids, rest and use a vaporizer to get moisture into the air in your house. A shot of Nyquil or better Vicks Cough and Cold will help you sleep. Now, go get a big glass of water and put on some water for tea..... now.

Depends on the type of cold/flu. If I am stuffy then I will not preform oral cause I have a real phobia of not being able to breathe. If I am sick in the tummy (let's say...) I don't want PIV sex generally speaking. Vomiting or other problems associated with intestinal flu are not sexy to us....as Arch says, "Just...no"
If I am cramping for whatever reason an orgasm can help so I'm up for that but sometimes PIV sex worsens the problem.
My guys are very understanding and generally don't want me winching in pain unless that's on the menu so we don't have much conflict in that area unless I am refusing to see the Dr. and the sick is dragging on.

If I am vomiting no way, but for the most part heck yes!

ROFL I am not contemplating "unsexy snorking noises" mainly because I'm weird that way. I cannot imagine either of my super clean guys having a good reaction to me dripping on them...Arch would stop in the middle of changing the Monkey to wash his hands (leaving a newborn on the floor uncovered is NOT a good idea boy or girl, unless you want pee sprayed all over everywhere!) so I can imagine being dumped unceremoniously on my ass if that should happen.

I have noticed the headache thing as well. If I orgasm and actually have sex and then go to sleep soon afterwards I don't have nightmares and can actually rest if I don't then I will wake up several times in a full blown panic attack.

Maybe, maybe not, it depends on a lot of different things.

LOL! Arch is a little bit of a germaphobe, hmm?

I am sorry about your panic attacks, not fun at all.

Nothing seems to bother My Man when he's getting head. Not even "unsexy snorking noises." I remember when we first started living together, (I have terribly non-working sinuses) and he would suddenly say in the middle of the night, "What in G*d's name is that infernal clicking noise?" Me:"Um.... that's my sinuses...." It doesn't bother him anymore.

Yeah, the headache thing, a moderate one is helped by sex, while the simple motion of sex during a nasty one is terrible. In fact, he claimed the reason he went right to sleep last night was that I had a full blown migraine when he came home. ..... uh, got better..... He should have asked, Fioracet and Vicodin have a miraculous effect on headaches.

When I'm not feeling well, I'm often not physically able to have sex, so it's not much of an issue with us.

Really depends on the energy level and how I'm feeling at that moment. Sometimes when I'm sick I'm exhausted all the time - can't really have sex effectively when I have no drive. Sometimes I will feel better even when I'm sick, and sex has actually made me feel better afterwards.

Definitely depends on how terrible I feel and what kind of sick it is.

Unless I'm in a coma I won't turn it down.

If I have an awful headache, was throwing up all night and can't move, or stop sneezing or coughing (all at the same moment) then I MIGHT turn him down, but usually I love the distraction

I used to find sex helpful for cramps, but as I get older, the cramping only happens during the very heavy first day of my period, when it's just too icky to have sex. Period sex is fine if the flow is light, but not when it's a tidal wave.

So mostly I want to be left alone, or maybe snuggled a bit. If he wants sex when I'm sick, he'll have to take care of it himself or wait till I'm feeling better.

As long as I'm not having bowel issues or vomiting I'm good to go. Me being sick will only affect position and how well I'm able to do oral because of congestion
