NDTV: Irish Man Loses His Memory 10 Minutes After Having Sex With Wife.
Limerick, Ireland: In a bizarre incident, a 66-year-old Irish man was rushed to a hospital with short-term amnesia after having sex with his wife.
The anomalous case was analysed in the May issue of the Irish Medical Journal, published Wednesday, and doctors explained that gender was the trigger for short-term amnesia-formally known as Transient Global Amnesia (TGA).
The Mayo Clinic defines TGA as "an episode of sudden transient global amnesia that is not caused by more common neuropathy such as epilepsy or stroke".
In the case of this Irish man, the medical journal reported that he lost his short-term memory 'within 10 minutes of sexual intercourse.
After their sexual intercourse, the man took notice of the date on his mobile phone and he 'suddenly turned distressed that he had forgotten his wedding anniversary the day before.' Although the man had celebrated the special occasion the previous evening, he had no clue about it.
"He repetitively questioned his wife and daughter over the events of that morning and the previous day," according to the journal.

The man had previously experienced TGA in 2015, and this incident also occurred shortly after having sex. Thankfully, he later regained his short-term memory.
Realizing that he may be suffering from another TGA episode, the man went to a local emergency room. There he was found by neurological examination to be "completely normal". After a while, his memory returned.
Make up your own joeks. 🤣
