Prolonged sexual absence is not good for you. Not just for the heart and mind, but for health as well. But what happens when you do not have sex for a long time?
Nothing major, but nothing good, because it has been proven that prolonged sexual absence is not good for you, for the heart, mind, lust, ego, health, but also old body and mind.
To understand how important sex is, here is what happens if you do not have sex for a long time.
If you do not have sex, the immune system weakens
If sexual deficiency persists for long periods, it makes us sick more often and more easily.
Having sex and feeling pleasure, in fact, strengthens the immune system, so making love at least once a week will help the body create antibodies and be healthy.
Increases stress
Failure to have sex worsens the mental state.
There is no doubt that it is good for the mental state, but also for the mental state. In fact, during sexual intercourse, the brain releases endorphins and oxytocin, the latter defined as the "happiness hormone".
Stopping sexual activity leads to a drastic decrease in levels of oxytocin and serotonin (the other famous hormone of happiness).
Therefore, having an active sex life is equivalent to endorphin supply and increasing serotonin levels, consequently feeling happier.
We feel more empathetic towards others and cultivate more self-esteem.
Not having sex for long periods of time increases the risk of stress, mood and anxiety.
You may suffer from insomnia
Insomnia is closely related to the lack of sex due to oxytone, the hormone that is released in large quantities at the peak of pleasure, orgasm.
In addition to being the hormone responsible for happiness, oxytocin also has a very powerful calming effect, such as helping you fall asleep better and earlier.
The vagina loses elasticity and lubrication
Not having sex or doing a little significantly reduces the risk of suffering from cystitis and other bacterial diseases, but at the same time making love trains the vagina and strengthens muscle level.
Saying goodbye to eroticism for a long time means losing muscle tone, just like those who suddenly leave the gym.
In addition, you may experience lubrication problems due to estrogen drop precisely because it is the excitement that causes vaginal moisture.
And this dryness due to small sex risks causing cystitis.
You feel the pain more
Having sex helps you feel less physical pain. The endorphins produced at the time of orgasm function as a powerful natural analgesic that allows you to tolerate more physical pain, raising the pain threshold by at least two or three levels.
Minor aches and pains, like headaches, will be perceived in an easier way. If you have been sexually absent for a long time, it is very likely that tolerance for physical harm will fall to an all-time minimum.
The skin is less radiant
Sex is good for the face because it produces estrogen which gives greater availability of collagen, thus making the skin more elastic, young, toned and radiant.
Not only that, sex is a great gym, a physical exercise that burns a lot of calories and makes you sweat a lot.
With sweating, the pores open and the dirt is washed away, but the hair and nails also improve.
Lack of sex reduces libido, the less sex you have, the less desire you will have
The most "dangerous" thing we inevitably end up with is that reducing or stopping sex causes a decrease in lust.
The less sex you have the less you will want to have it.
It seems silly, but it is so and it all depends on the hormones that makes a relationship to secrete. In the absence of those hormones, gradually the need for a satisfying sex life will be perceived in a wrong way. We will believe that we can do without them, we will hardly want them anymore, but health, skin, psyche and man will be hurt.
Sex trains your body and brain
We have already mentioned that sexual intercourse is equivalent to a fitness session in terms of calories burned and muscle toning.
In fact it is physical activity that improves the cardiovascular system and allows you to burn calories (and do it having more fun than on a treadmill…)
But not only the benefits of the body, but also the brain. Sexual activity develops neurons in the hippocampus, the part of the brain that plays an important function for long-term memory and spatial orientation.
Not making love for a long time, affects not only the aging of muscles, body and skin, but also the brain./A2CNN
