These are the sex acts that are most likely to injure you, according to science

Last edited Sat Nov 18, 2017, 02:06 PM - Edit history (1)


Getting injured during sex sounds like a bad storyline to a soap opera - but it is very real and can happen in all manner of ways.

Just think about all of those repetitive movements and those muscles that you don't use too often.

It's bound to cause you all sorts of physical trouble, and the possibility of death isn't entirely out of the question! Let's not get too morbid though.

Injuries during intercourse are far more common than what you might think, and of course you'll want to avoid them.

So, in order to steer clear of any mishaps these are the sexual acts that could cause you a serious injury (and how to remedy some), according to science.

And historically was much much higher.

So having sex can be dangerous to women.

She landed on the side of the bed and tumpled on the floor. She didn't get hurt. I'd probably cripple myself if I did that again.
