A 22-year-old Israeli young man's unusual illness and treatment cases were recently published in the global journal 『American Journal of Case Reports』.
From the age of 14, he suffered from allergic symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, muscle aches, tears, and dazed feelings for hours or days after feeling an ordeal.
Symptoms appeared after sexual intercourse, self-defense, and even after 'dreaming'.
For many years, these symptoms have led him to even suffer from depression and anxiety.
The Israeli Carmel Medical Center medical staff who examined him diagnosed him with "Postorgasmic disease syndrome (POIS)".
The disease is a rare condition that only 50 people worldwide suffer from, causing an allergic reaction to proteins released by the immune system at the peak of men. In other words, allergic symptoms appear after the assessment.
The condition was first detected in 2002 by Dr. Marcel D. Waldinger, a Dutch sexist.
Dr. Marcel also developed five criteria for diagnosing the disease.
The criteria include ▲ flu-like symptoms and include ▲ more than 9 out of 10 occurrences ▲ lasts about 2 to 7 days ▲ starts within minutes or hours ▲ symptoms stop spontaneously.
Most have mild symptoms of fatigue and body aches, but some patients may have heart palpitations or say things that are not logical.
Carmel Medical Center medical staff prescribed omalizumab, an allergy treatment drug, to the patient.
After that, symptoms improved completely, but symptoms recurred when omalizumab treatment was stopped after 7 months. Now, whenever he has self-defense or sex, he has no choice but to get an allergy shot.
The medical team reported that "as a result of showing the effectiveness of omalizumab treatment in patients with post-orthothorax disease syndrome"."
Then "POIS can be caused by hormonal imbalance in the brain."Estimating that "The patient tested negative for seminal allergy, which means that he is not allergic to protein in the ejaculation site."
