According to experts, these are some of the things that will happen to your body when you stop having s*x.

S*x is not only pleasurable, it is also therapeutic. That’s what
experts say. Experts warn that if you’ve had s*x before and now you are
refraining from it, there would be trouble!
The following are some of the risks involved…
1. Unhealthy heart: Experts say s*x can be good
for your heart, based on a research. Scientists consider the act of s*x
an aerobic exercise, which is very good for your heart. In fact, certain
research assures that a healthy sex life may decrease your risk of
having a heart attack.
2. Loss of libido: Certified s*x therapist, Sari
Cooper, notes that, for some people who refrain from s*x, they begin to
feel more sluggish, with less vitality and low hunger for s*x. It is a
literal fulfilment of the adage, ‘Out of sight is out of mind,’ hence
the death of the desire for s*x.
3. Weak vagina wall: For the woman, if you stop
having s*x, the muscles in your vagina can tense up and therefore make
s*x become painful. Your vaginal walls get weaker.
4. Anxiety: When you have not had s*x for a long
period, you may become anxious about having s*x, which can lead to
tension that can make it uncomfortable.
5. You might feel unhappy: Specialist in sexual
health and HIV, Dr. Mark Lawton, says if you feel unhappy after a long
spell of sexual abstinence, it is very likely that you will be unhappy.
Lawton says, “Certainly s*x releases endorphins and happy hormones
that give a sense of wellbeing that you might no longer get. From a
psychological point of view, someone might feel a responsibility to have
sex – they feel that they should be having it. If they are not, that
could also lead to a low mood.”
6. Risk of erectile dysfunction: Abstinence from
s*x seems to increase the likelihood of erectile dysfunction in men,
according to some studies. The studies tend to focus on older men, but
they’re all united in the conclusion that regular sexual activity has a
positive effect on a man’s erections. Use it or lose it, as it were.
7. Compromised immunity: It seems as if sexual
activity contributes positively to body’s immune function. In women,
these changes appear to be geared towards making it easier to get
pregnant. That’s why, if you are not having s*x regularly, you will lose
that benefit and you may be more prone to illnesses and infections that
your immune system would otherwise block if you were having regular
s*x.
8. Loss of intelligence: Scientists have
demonstrated that sexual activity boosts neuron growth in the brain’s
hippocampus. Abstinence from s*x does not make the brain grow at all.
9. Low self-esteem: You may feel less attractive
and sadder. It’s believed that semen has antidepressant qualities. Using
a condom can have these negative reactions as well.
The bottom line: Maintain a healthy s*x life!
