A good sex not just helps you build a better relationship but better health too. Yes, a little loving can boost your overall health in many surprising ways. There are many reasons people choose to have sex, and it includes pleasure, intimacy, stress relief, escape, or self-validation but having sex quite often has far more to it than just plain pleasure.  

Before we talk about it, let’s also keep in mind that sex is not about forcing your partner into the bed but creating a healthy and consensual moment.

So how not engaging in intimacy can impact your health?

• Anxiety and Stress: If you don’t have sex with your partner often then it may make you feel less connected to them, which could mean you don’t talk about your feelings much or get a lot of support in managing day-to-day stressors. Also, don’t forget that sex makes your body release hormones, like oxytocin and endorphins, that can help you manage the effects of stress.

• Memory: Want to have a good memory? have sex as it can help your brain grow neurons.

• Immune System: Regular sex can boost your immunity and help you in fighting cold and cough.

• Relives headache and pain: Sex can help with migraines and cluster headaches!

• Helps in hair and skin glow: Like any vigorous physical activity, sex helps improve blood circulation, increasing the flow of oxygen to the skin and other organs.
