Why Having an Orgasm Is Good for Your Health

When you think about sex, chances are you're not honing in on how it's going to benefit your health, which makes a whole lot of sense, as being in the moment is a whole lot hotter than fixating on the science behind it. Benefits of an orgasm.

But along with an orgasm feeling incredibly good, it can also seriously benefit you mentally and physically, from reducing your stress levels to adding years onto your life. Here are research-baked benefits to give you another reason to jump in the sack.

Sex More, Stress Less

According to research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, sex can reduce stress via our brain reward pathways. Researchers discovered that rats having intercourse daily for two weeks led to cell growth in the hippocampus, which is the part of the brain that's in charge of managing stress.

Bangin' Heart Health

More sex equals a better heart says research published inThe American Journal of Cardiology, which found that men who orgasm once a month or less were 45 percent more likely to have a stroke or even contract a cardiovascular disease as opposed to those who had sex more than twice a week.

Prevent Prostate Cancer

Having sex nearly every day can lower your risk of developing prostate cancer by 33 percent, according to a 10-year follow-up of a Harvard study from 2004. Ejaculation is key, as purging your body of old sperm rids the body of precancerous cells.

Keep Away Colds

A study published in the journal Neuroimmunomodulation discovered that orgasms can activate parts of our immune system responsible for helping us get over colds quicker. In the study, the researchers asked 11 male volunteers to masturbate until completion, blood being drawn continuously throughout the process, which revealed orgasms increased the number of "killer" cells known as leukocytes in the participants. As if you needed another reason to have sex. Were these bits of information helpful?
