Below are nine additional health benefits of regular se x:
1. It boosts immunity : “Research suggests that those who have had sex recently have
higher levels of immunoglobulin A, an antibody that can help ward off common cold
and flu symptoms,” says Astroglide’s Resident Sexologist, Dr. Jess.
2. You’ll live longer: Improved longevity, balanced hormones and lower stress levels.
“These benefits are associated with the good night’s sleep that often follows a romp
in the hay owing to the increase in oxytocin levels!” says Dr. Jess.
3. Couples who are in a happy relationship have a decreased risk of cardiovascular
disease, higher survival rates after serious surgeries and greater longevity owing to
healthier eating habits, stronger social networks and an increased likelihood of
seeking medical care, says Dr. Jess.
4. Pain relief: Se x can be used as a pain reliever especially during orga sm when
levels of oxytocin get exponentially elevated, says John W. Beiter, Ph.D., CST,
Licensed Psychologist and AASECT Certified Se x Therapist. So, stop using those
headaches as an excuse not to play!
5. Anti-aging : “Studies have shown that couples having more se x can look seven
years younger!” says love and se x coach Kim Anami.
6. Exercise : According to psychologist and se x therapist Dr. Estella Sneider, by
having se x at least three times per week it helps burn calories and we get the
benefit of using more than 500 muscles!
7. It’s great for your career: “Dr. Helen Fisher, an anthropologist and biologist,
states that people who have se x regularly are more successful at work,” says
Sneider. According to her, sex helps trusting oneself and increases self–esteem.
8. Beauty treatment: Regular se x increases estrogen production, which makes your
hair shiny and your skin smooth. “The pheromones you release act as a natural
perfume, so more people are attracted to you!” adds Anami.
9. Stress relief: The oxytocin released at orgas m wipes out cortisol, which is the
major stress hormone, says Anami.
