Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my partner and I have been getting to know each other sexually and the last time they had an orgasm, their hands went completely numb for a minute or two. It didn t seem to be too concerning and if this is normal I am really more curious as to what caused this if it s anything more than blood being drawn to genetalia as priority over other parts of the body?
Blood is drawn towards the genitalia but this is only a small amount as genitalia itself cannot store a large amount of blood. I would recommend a blood coagulation profile, check on chronic conditions that can present in such a way like diabetes, and other conditions similarly.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.

Are Numbness In Hands During Orgasm Normal?
Hello and welcome. Blood is drawn towards the genitalia but this is only a small amount as genitalia itself cannot store a large amount of blood. I would recommend a blood coagulation profile, check on chronic conditions that can present in such a way like diabetes, and other conditions similarly. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
