American researchers have found that certain intimate activities can help couples increase their intimacy.

Health Benefits

  • Regular intimate activities and masturbation are important for overall health.
  • Orgasms stimulate the brain, releasing oxytocin, which is often referred to as a love drug, making people more trusting and affectionate.
  • Orgasms can reduce depression and are considered better than some anti-depressant drugs.
  • Masturbation can help with sleep, relaxing the body and reducing stress.
  • Intimate activities can strengthen the immune system by raising the levels of Immunoglobulin A (IgA), an antibody that fights off diseases.
  • Orgasms can also lead to glowing skin, with the post-orgasm glow being a real phenomenon in about 75 percent of women.
  • Stimulating the G-spot can increase a woman’s pain threshold by 107 percent.
  • Orgasms can boost fertility, with a woman who has an orgasm retaining significantly more sperm in her womb than with non-orgasmic activities.
  • Lastly, orgasms are good for the heart, with studies showing that women with a higher incidence of heart disease had fewer orgasms.
