I fainted when I was getting physical with my boyfriend in bed, should I be worried?

My partner and I have been getting physical for some time. We made some agreements here and there, you know the usual.
Today he asked if he could be rough and I said it would be okay only if he would check up on me now and then, which he agreed upon.
While doing it I fainted 4 times, 3 times for a few seconds and 1 time for like 15 seconds. My partner stopped when he realized that I had fainted for longer than 10 seconds.
He didn’t know what to do so he waited until I “woke up” again. He seemed clearly worried about it but he didn’t want to talk about it. But this made me quite worried as well.

So hereby my question: is it okay if you faint while doing it?
Netizens’ comments
- Choking play? Or just overwhelmed intensity resulted in fainting?
- (OP) Overwhelmed intensity, we’re both not into choking play
- I’d talk to a doctor about it but it’s likely from something like hyperventilation. However, it could also be something like a heart issue that isn’t diagnosed.
- Some people can faint during or after vigorous activity. Whether or not you need to worry depends the underlying cause. The internet cannot diagnose you, so you should really ask your doctor, even if for nothing more than a good reassurance.
- I’ve fainted before a few times! Not sure if it’s normal, but its probably just from rapid heart rate and breathing. Oxygen in your brain and whatnot. If it keeps happening or you notice some strange things about your body, mention it to your doctor and take it easy
- How good is your cardio? Are you in positions that affect blood flow to your head? Are you doing any kind of pain play? If the answer to all 3 is no, then talk to a doctor immediately, there is potentially something more serious going on that is worth having checked out.
