66-year-old Irish man suffers amnesia 10 minutes after sex with wife

According to a case report published in the Official Journal of the Irish Medical Organisation on Wednesday, the sex triggered short-term amnesia, temporarily wiping his memory of the previous day and making him unable to retain new information. The doctors are calling it the “Transient Global Amnesia (TGA)” which, according to the Mayo Clinic, has been defined as “a sudden, temporary episode of memory loss that can't be attributed to a more common neurological condition, such as epilepsy or stroke.”

The doctors said that after the intercourse, the man “became distressed” when he noticed the date on his phone and thought that “he had forgotten about his wedding anniversary”. However, in fact, he had celebrated it with his wife and family the day earlier, but was unable to recall those events.

The memory loss lasted for an hour, with the man “repetitively questioning his wife and daughter over the events of that morning and the previous day,” according to the journal.

He later visited an emergency room and had a completely normal neurological examination.

The doctors called it a rare condition which usually affects those between the ages of 50 and 70.

“Honey, we haven’t made whoopee in a while! How about we…”

The missus is thrilled.

If you can’t remember who your wife is I guess it would be like having a little strange. Works for me.

Sounds like a normal “senior moment” to me.

At the risk of a stereotype this sounds like blarney — I’d guess he was expecting a different result than “honey, that’s serious, let’s rush you to a doctor.”

He probably was just going to say “Dear, we haven’t had sex for a while so how about now?” but she didn’t buy it and took him to the hospital.

Wait, wasn’t this exact title posted yesterday? I’m either having deja vu or amnesia. Can’t seem to remember the difference.

No, it wasn’t that. I think it was deja vu.

“once you reach 70 youre fine from then on ...”

Then, you don’t remember anything, including not remembering what you forgot!:)
