If You Stop Having Sex.
This topic can be viewed as controversial or healthy and helpful depending on your perspective. Whatever your views are , I hope you approach it with an open mind since you just might find aspects helpful. The views expressed here are not panacea for a complete fulfilling life but examines findings made by experts in the field. We do accept that everyone has his or her own peculiarities.. Lack or complete abstinence can lead to the following:
*Anxiety
Maybe sex is the last thing on your mind when you get stressed out. But it might help to lower your anxiety. Sex seems to lessen the amount of hormones your body releases in response to stress. An active sex life can make you happier and healthie, which might also keep anxiety at bay.
*Your Heart Might Not Work As Well.
Research says that people who have sex once a month or less are more likely at risk for heart disease than those who have it twice a week or more. Part of the reason could be that you get a bit more exercise and are less likely to be anxious or depressed. More sex could also mean that you are physically and mentally healthier in the first place.
*You're not burning enough calories.
Sex typically burns about 5 calories per minute. That's about equal to brisk walk. And you use a bit more oxygen too. Having sex can also improve your mental health.
*You May Lose Your Keys More Often.
As amusing as this may sound, lack of sex can also affect your ability to recall where you might have placed some common things as your car keys. Regular sex seems to be linked to improved memory, especially if you're between the ages 50 and 89. It's not clear why.
*Your Immune System May Get Weaker
Weekly sex seems to boost your immune system compared to those who have it less often. Part of the reason may be that iit raises levels of germ-fighting substance called immunoglobulin A, or IgA. But more is not always better here, People who had sex more than twice a week had lower levels of IgA than those who had no sex.
*Yor Relationship Changes
Sex bathes your brain in chemical "afterglow" that lasts about two days and helps to bond you and your partner over the long term. Without it you could lose some of the satisfaction of your relationship. A happy, healthy sexual relationship -couples who do it at least once a week seem to be happiest- can help build trust and understanding between you and your partner.
*Your Prostate May Be Less Healthy.
The reasons aren't exactly clear , but in at least onr study, men who ejaculated less than seven times a month were more likely to get prostate cancer compared to those who a did it at least 21 times a month.
*You might Sleep Less
Without sex, you'll miss out on the hormones that promote restful sleep, like prolactin and oxytocin. Women get an estrogen boost that helps even more. The reverse is true, too: if you decide you want to start having sex again, a good night's sleep is just about the thing to keep you feeling frisky.
*Your Blood Pressure Might Rise
Sex, seems to keep your blood pressure down. That makes sense when you consider what it does : It adds a bit of aerobic and muscle building exercise, and can ease anxiety and make you feel better. Both of those can help your numbers where they need to be.
Stay healthy while having fun.
