An Orgasm is Good For You! The Benefits Of A Good Orgasm Often Get Overlooked - By Amy Otis
Orgasms: Relieve tension. A faster heart beat; the increased blood flow and muscular tautness associated with sexual pleasure all come to a relaxing conclusion with an orgasm, and in the process relieve tensions pent up in your nervous system.
Orgasms: Help you sleep better. While an orgasm is followed in the male by a quick drop in blood pressure and sudden relaxation, the effect on women is more progressive, but no less important. Orgasms act as a natural tranquilizer by their wonderful release of endorphins; hence calmness.
Orgasms: Calm your cravings for junk food, sugar, and sometimes for cigarettes. Sexual stimulation activates the production of phenetylamine, a kind of natural amphetamine that regulates your appetite. So, before you pig-out, maybe go to your room (alone or with a friend.)
Orgasms: Burn calories.
Orgasms: Can work as natural pain management.
If you ever noticed forgetting about a headache or menstrual cramps while masturbating or having sex, it’s not simply a psychological phenomenon. Endorphins, (natural compounds produced in the brain, similar to morphine) are released by your body during sex and can increase your tolerance to pain by as much as 70% during orgasm. This will vary from person to person of course.
A word of caution, if you are in the hospital, forget trying this for pain management due to the lack of privacy, I’ll never forget walking in on a patient and her lover. (I did knock on the door before I entered).
Enjoy!
