Why is it good to make love?

When you think of sex, such questions probably do not fill your head because you love having sex and you truly do not need to seek the “whys”. However, a plus or two cause no harm. It is scientifically proved that active sex life has a beneficial effect both on your health and soul. Let us look at 10 perfect reasons to hop into bed.

 

10 reasons to make love

1. Physical Exercise.

Everyone is probably familiar with the pleasant fatigue after sexual activity after which you can sleep as a baby. Dr. Michael Cirigliano of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine says that making love three times a week burns about 7,500 calories in a year, which is the equivalent of jogging 75 miles.

 

2. Heavy Breathing.

An increase in the amount of oxygen in cells caused by heavy breathing during sexual activity helps keep vital organs and tissues functioning at their peak.

 

3. Strong Bones and Muscles.

Dr. Karen Donahey, director of the Sex and Marital Therapy Program at Chicago's Northwestern University Medical Centre, says an increase in levels of testosterone is one of the results of active physical activity in sexual intercourse. An increase  in amounts of the male sex hormone thus helps keep bones and muscles strong.

 


 

4. Lowered Cholesterol.

Lowering levels of cholesterol is one of the effects of active sex life as well.

 

5. Pain Relief.

Lovemaking helps relieve pain, says Dr. Beverly Whipple, president-elect of the American Association of Sex Educators, Counsellors and Therapists, as well as   alleviate headache pain and the pain cause by arthritis. This  is done by the hormones released during sexual arousal and orgasm.

 

6. DHEA – Without Supplements.

During sexual activity and just before reaching orgasm and ejaculation, DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone), a supplemental hormone, is released to levels three times higher than usual, without supplemental artificial agents, which contributes to a considerable improvement in your mood. This is also the reason why it is so famous.

 

7. Prostate Protection.

Studies show that making love is great for protecting the prostate as regular ejaculation helps wash out the build-up fluid within the gland.

8. Stress Relief.

Making love is an effective way of reducing stress levels because it has a positive effect on your mood and it helps keep your distance to external problems.

 

9. Love Will Keep Us Together.

Regular sexual relations are the main element of a relationship as affectionate touch increases levels of Oxytocin, the “bonding hormone” between the partners, which encourages a desire for frequent lovemaking.

 

10. Hormones – Naturally.

Lovemaking increases amounts of estrogen, the female hormone, which protects her heart and helps keep the stamina of your partner.

 

When you think of sexual union with your partner today, tomorrow or perhaps you are thinking of it right now, do not let it be for the purpose of mere satisfaction. You should make love with all your sensuality as in this way you will contribute the lion’s share to your health and relationship.
You should however remember the fact that for healthy sex life you have to be aware of the traps such as unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases.
