Gentlemen, what if your next argument for convincing your partner to have a naughty cuddle was scientific? Yes, as astonishing as it may seem, your libido could well become your best ally against certain cancers, and even boost your general health. Ready to combine business with pleasure?
When people tell you that sex is good for your health… You may finally be listening! And not only is it good for your health, it’s also good for your morale and your personal and (especially) intimate relationships. Here’s everything you need to know about sex to (maybe) live longer.
How many times a month can you reduce your risk of cancer?
Forget the usual excuses. Here’s an excellent reason to have sex more often: your health! According to a study published in the prestigious Journal of the American Medical Association, regular sexual activity is associated with a significantly reduced risk of prostate cancer.
The magic number?
Ejaculating at least 21 times a month could reduce your risk of prostate cancer by 31% compared with those who have only 4 to 7 monthly intercourses. Yes, gentlemen, you read that right: your health also depends on how often you have sex!
Exactly how does it work?
Scientists assume that regular ejaculation effectively eliminates potentially carcinogenic substances accumulated in the prostate. In other words, the more you take care of your pleasure, the more you take care of your health. A compelling argument for planning those little intimate moments, don’t you think?
And don’t worry, the ladies won’t be outdone! Another study published in Breast Cancer Research shows that regular sexual activity also helps reduce the risk of breast cancer in women, thanks in particular to the release of oxytocin, the famous happy hormone.
As we keep telling you, sex is good for everything! And now you’ve got some convincing arguments to convince Madame. But just in case, I’ll give you a few more.
10 healthy reasons to have sex regularly
1. Boost your immune system!
Making love stimulates the production of antibodies essential for fighting infection. Your bed, your new vaccine? Why not!
Here’s a practical tip: to maximize this effect, plan regular spontaneous ” health sessions ” with your partner.
2. Reduce stress and anxiety
A naughty moment releases endorphins, nature’s antidepressants. No more stress, just pleasure and absolute relaxation!
3. Improve your quality of sleep
Can’t sleep? A little cuddle before bed increases prolactin, the magic hormone that helps you drift off to sleep.
4. Strengthen your heart
Regular sex is an excellent physical activity for your heart. Your bedroom becomes a gym without a membership!
A little practical advice (again): do regular “night workouts” to keep your heart in top shape. Cardio is important.
5. Fight depression
Naturally boost your serotonin and dopamine levels with regular cuddles. The result? You’re happier, plain and simple.
6. Preserve your youth
Yes, making love on a regular basis stimulates blood circulation and oxygenates your skin – a real youth cocktail.
7. Reduce pain
Sex acts as a natural painkiller. No more everyday aches and pains, thanks to the pain-relieving hormones released during the act of love. And you should know, it’s also good against… migraines! With the activation of blood circulation, it makes headaches go away. I’ll put it here.
8. Increase your life expectancy
Studies have proven it: a fulfilling sex life significantly increases your life expectancy. A veritable fountain of youth in your bed! If this argument isn’t enough on its own, nothing else is!
9. Strengthen emotional ties
Regular lovemaking increases your complicity, sense of security and emotional connection with your partner. What’s more, to make feelings last, we need contact and touch. Making love (and I don’t mean doing it mechanically) is important for a couple’s solidity.
10. Improve your self-esteem
Being desired and satisfying your partner considerably improves your self-confidence, a virtuous circle for your general well-being.
Now that you’ve got all the “technical” information, I’ll answer the questions I’ve heard most often. I’ve put together a little FAQ for you. Yes, there’s no stopping me.
