Sabías qué la falta de sexo...

Did you know that the absence of sexual activity could cause insomnia, increase cholesterol levels, alter our mood and even lead us to commit infidelities? The lack of regular sexual activity affects both our health and our relationship with our partner. Maintaining sexual relations with a certain frequency, for example once a week, has a positive impact on our system; but what happens when we don't practice sex? We are more prone to suffering from insomnia, having higher cholesterol levels, our mood changes and we may even commit infidelities. While there is some case that might associate longevity with chastity, it remains exceptional. According to research conducted at the most respected universities around the world, a prolonged period of sexual abstinence would have the following effects: - During sexual encounters, endorphins (also known as the happiness molecule) are released, allowing certain pains to be alleviated and generating a sense of well-being. Therefore, we would be depriving our nervous system of a natural analgesic effect. - Sex is one of the greatest sleep inducers. Those most affected are those who suffer from insomnia. As a consequence, they may experience low concentration, poor mood, loss of reflexes and fatigue. - The absence of sex and exercise is fatal for cholesterol levels. Additionally, protection against cardiac risk is lost. - Without good hydration and if no other physical activity is performed that allows for proper oxygenation, the lack of sex makes the skin look less radiant since it is deprived of the increase in blood circulation that occurs during sexual relations. - It can generate frustration. - In the case of women, vaginal dryness may cum in vaginal atrophy. In men, prostate health is worse. - In a couple, the lack of sex causes emotional imbalance, infidelity, and breakups. If one of the two is not satisfied, it will cause irritability and very grave feelings of rejection for the relationship. - Those who maintain sexual relations less than once a week show a weaker immune system.
