Here’s two things you never thought you needed a better reason for, but there is one anyway: living longer and having more sex.
Doctor’s orders: more sex, live longer. Sounds easy, right?
Scientific studies suggest that having more sex can help prolong your life, but the reason why continues to remain unclear. Is it really sex that makes you live longer or is it your hormones that prolong your life and make you have more sex?
On one hand the higher your sex hormones are, the more libido and, hence, sex you have. On the other hand, it was shown that sex increases estrogen levels in women, suggesting that the act itself can increase sex hormone levels.
So which came first the sex or the hormone? It’s like the never-ending egg or chicken debate. Truth is: there is no way of knowing.
Hormones prolong life, but sex can increase hormones levels, making your life longer and happier.
From my practical point of view it means that you may benefit from having sex more often, provided that you checked with your physician and it is safe for you. Not that you needed a reason to have more sex, but here they are anyway:
1. Sex may prolong your life, if safety is not forgotten.
2. By having sex more often you may raise your hormone levels, increasing your performance and your life span.
3. More fun in your life helps reduce your stress, therefore making your life longer.
If you have more reasons to have sex please let us know.
