"Dear Dr. Kate, Every once in a while when I am sleeping I have a very vivid sexual dream and when I wake up, the area from my lower abdomen down to my knees feels almost numb. What is going on? There&amp;amp;#8217;s not much research in this field, but it&amp;amp;#8217;s possible that you&amp;amp;#8217;re having an orgasm while you sleep. When you wake up, you may be feeling the after-effects&amp;amp;#8212;muscle contractions in conjunction with a bit of hyperventilation. Orgasm is often a total-body reaction, and every woman experiences it differently both during and after her climax. As long as you regain sensation quickly&amp;amp;#8212;and can get out of bed without wobbling&amp;amp;#8212;I wouldn&amp;amp;#8217;t worry. Just enjoy the dreams while you have them! Have you ever had an orgasm in your sleep? Or somewhere else unexpected? Have a sex health question of your own? Ask Dr. Kate here, and keep checking back to see if she&amp;#x27;s answered it.
