ResumoPost orgasmic illness syndrome (POIS) is a newly described syndrome. Manifestations of this syndrome may be physical, cognitive or both. Many theories have been proposed to explain the causes of this syndrome including allergy to seminal components, allergy to unknown proteins released during ejaculation or a psychosomatic etiology. We present a case of POIS with a manifestation of atopy that may be consistent with the allergy hypothesis.
