Published on September 29, 2021, a study revealed that couples who have good quality bedroom fun with one committed partner tend to be happier and have a more exciting life despite their age.

So, before you postpone your session because you’re not in the mood, there are so many reasons why you should be having it. Not only will you bond and feel more connected to your partner, but there are more benefits to the buzz and tingle that engulfs your body.

Here are some ways a healthy sex life can improve your life:

  • Sex can provide relief from pain, including menstrual cramps, as the hormones released block pain signals increasing your pain threshold.
  • Endorphins work as your body’s natural painkiller, helping to alleviate headaches.
  • Engaging in sex acts as a form of workout, helping you calm down while the endorphins released during that period boosts your mood.
  • Some of the chemicals produced during sex reduce irritability and depression, while oxytocin helps you to calm down and the more orgasms you get the happier you become.
  • Foreplay and good quality sex where both of you are satisfied, plays a huge role in your happiness, with studies showing that partners who have intercourse often have a much better life compared to those who don’t.

When it comes to sex, women are more inclined to want more sex if their emotional and mental health are OK, while men are often driven by physical desire. When all these factors are met, and the deed takes place often, it builds self-esteem, a better self-image, and reduces feelings of insecurity no matter how your bodies have changed.
