Talk show veteran Kelly Ripa occasionally dishes on her bedroom life with husband Mark Consuelos , but not like this.

The Live With Kelly and Ryan host wrote in the upcoming book Live Wire that she once passed out during sex because of large cysts on her ovaries.

When she regained consciousness, she was in the emergency room.

My eyes shift between the fuzzy images on the screen, the remnants of my ovarian tormentor, and Mark happily snacking away, she wrote in an excerpt shared by Haute Living on Wednesday.

Sex can be so traumatic I think, and yet one of us is completely undaunted. There he is, happily munching on the saltines now and ordering a second apple juice. Mark could be at a movie, or a spa. Instead, Im flat on my back wondering when the other two cysts will burst.
