is it normal for my fingers to go numb
after we have sex?

I don't know but it used to happen to me
too. tingly fingers, like the fell asleep.
i always thought it was really wierd. cool
that someone else has it too! I think it
might be a circulation thing- are you
remembering to breathe and relax during
sex?

from, all I know is it usually comes with
really good sex. Lol

hyperventilation.
Try taking really deep quick breaths for a
full minute, so deep that you need to move
your shoulders up and down at a really
fast rate. You'll get the same sensation.

Doesn't it happen because all your blood
is rushing to your lower region so there's
less of it in your hands, causing it to
almost "fall asleep"?

No, it's more likely due to
hyperventilation. Your actual blood
distribution does not change that much.

Personally, I have never experienced this.
Could it be you are positioning your
fingers a certain way during that time,
which cause them to fall asleep?
Just a thought.

Wow...this is really interesting. You
experience this too! Do you have a
circulation problem? Is that why you
think so, or are is it just a personal
conclusion?

Why would you think that?

I can see the logic in hyperventilation.
We tend to get up there in our breathing
pattern when close to an orgasm.
