Hi there,

Yep, this is something that lots of people experience. The reason is that arousal and particularly orgasm can cause uterine contractions. Those contractions can cause you to see slightly heavier flow, or more flow at once, after sex or masturbation.
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
