It can also help you sl eep better at night and wake up healthier in the morning. Studies also show that those who have an active s ex live longer and may even have more successful careers.

Below are nine additional health benefits of regular s*x:-

1. It boosts imm unity: “Research suggests that those who have had s*x recently have higher levels of immuno-globulin A, an antibody that can help ward off common cold and flu symptoms,” says Astroglide’s Resident s exologist, Dr. Jess.

2. You’ll live longer: Improved longevity, balanced hormones and lower stress levels. “These benefits are associated with the good night’s sl eep that often follows a romp in the hay owing to the increase in oxyto cin levels!” says Dr. Jess.

3. Healthier heart: Couples who are in a happy relationship have a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease, higher survival rates after serious surgeries and greater longevity owing to healthier eating habits, stronger social networks and an increased likelihood of seeking medical care, says Dr. Jess.

4. Pain relief: s ex can be used as a pain reliever especially during orgasm when levels of oxytocin get exponentially elevated, says John W. Beiter, Ph.D., CST, Licensed Psychologist and AASECT Certified s*x Therapist. So, stop using those headaches as an excuse not to play!

5. Anti-aging: “Studies have shown that couples having more s*x can look seven years younger!” says love and s*x coach Kim Anami.

6. Exercise: According to psychologist and s*x therapist Dr. Estella Sneider, by having s*x at least three times per week it helps burn calories and we get the benefit of using more than 500 muscles!

7. It’s great for your career: “Dr. Helen Fisher, an anthropologist and biologist, states that people who have s ex regularly are more successful at work,” says Sneider. According to her, s*x helps trusting oneself and increases self–esteem.

8. Beauty treatment: Regular s*x increases estr ogen production, which makes your hair shiny and your skin smooth. “The pheromones you release act as a natural perfume, so more people are attracted to you!” adds Anami.

9. Stress relief: The oxy tocin released at org*asm wipes out cort isol, which is the major stress horm one, says Anami.
