Sex as cure
by Lori
It is famous sex could help from managing migraines to alleviating arthritis pain. That is why we would all be likely to find out why making love may be just what the doctor ordered. Could sex be cure or that is just false some people claim? What doctors say about sexual intercourse accompanied with some diseases? Many people suffer of some heart disease, and they cannot have courage to ask their doctor what about sex. That is why we would all needed good article to confirm could sex be the cure and how. What does sex cure?It is confirmed what some studies show that sex can bolster the immune system, relieve pain, ease some types of migraine headaches and have important psychological benefits. The fact is in sex, the body releases its powerful endorphins. This is natural pain relievers, which create a healing, relaxing situation for the whole body. Sex can reduce heart disease as well. Those with intimacy in their lives had better levels of T cells or the while blood cells that affect the immune system. Other studies show sex on a regular basis reduces stress, helps alleviate PMS in some women, and that orgasm is a natural analgesic that relieves any kind of pain. Researchers debate the mechanisms of sexual first aid. One theory is that the endorphins activated by orgasm travel to receptor sites throughout the body and produce effect as morphine. Sex and mental healthSex is extremely important for good mental health. It shows as true in a long-term study of 37,500 adults. People with fulfilling sex lives were in better mental health, more relaxed, more positive outlook and more self-reliant. Marriage therapists saying how tender sex life helps bring out the best qualities we have. When that happens, the ills of both mind and body could heal more readily. It is interesting that some sex therapists warn that celibacy can be hazardous to your health. There was an article in the Washington Times, where some psychiatrists agreeing that abstinence may prevent sexually transmitted diseases. Sex can boost the immune systemDefinitely good news is how sex is good for you, at least in moderation. Psychologists showed that the immune systems of people who have sex once or twice a week boosts. Scientists evaluate how robust our immune systems are by measuring levels of immunoglobulin A. this is an antigen found in saliva and mucosal linings. This substance called IgA is the first line of defense against colds and flu. Important role for IgA is that it binds to pathogens at all the points of entry to the body and then calls on the immune system to destroy them. In study made to measure amount of IgA with people who had sex and who abstinence, results showed that participants who had sex less than once a week had a small increase in IgA over those who abstained completely. Those who had one or two sexual encounters each week had a 30 per cent rise. Unfortunately, people who had very frequent sex that means three times a week or more had lower IgA levels even than the abstainers had. The high levels of IgA in volunteers who had moderately frequent sex are easy to understand. Sexually active people may be exposed to many more infectious agents than sexually non-active people may. The immune system would respond to these foreign antigens by producing and releasing more IgA. In the same time, why there was no IgA rise in the most sexually active group is less clear. Sex and heart disease or strokeThousands of heart patients and stroke survivors have learned that having heart disease, a stroke or surgery does not mean sex life must end. After the first phase of recovery is over, patients find that the same forms of lovemaking are still rewarding. Many myths surround sex after heart disease and stroke but the most common one is that resuming sex often causes a heart attack, stroke or sudden death. This just is definitely not true. There is no reason why heart patients or stroke survivors cannot resume usual sexual activity as soon as they feel ready for it. If you have any concerns about your heart disease, you should talk with your doctor. Fears about performance and general depression can greatly reduce sexual interest and capacity that could be a problem. After recovery, heart patients and stroke survivors may feel depressed, this is normal. In the fact, 85 percent of the cases it goes away within three months. You and your mate or partner can prepare for sex in several ways but first, you can maintain and improve your physical conditions and personal hygiene. Second, you can be more tolerant of your emotions since temporary mood swings are common.  Before having a sex, choose a time when you are rested, relaxed and free from the stress brought on by the day’s activities. Then you should wait one to three hours after eating a full meal to allow time for digestion. Select a familiar, peaceful setting to have sex, which is free from interruptions. If prescribed by your doctor, you must take medicine before sexual relations. You should always be aware that your feelings about your body might have changed since your stroke. Good advice is to try using pillows to help support your affected side during lovemaking. Sex and stressMost of us generally recognize that extremely uptight and stressed-out people could benefit from a nice roll in the hay. However, sex is not always included as a top stress management technique. With all the physical and emotional benefits, it provides. The fact and truth is it should be. Everyone should learn the stress management benefits of a healthy sex life. We should also find tips on how to get our groove back if stress has put a damper on our libido. In addition to effectively taking your mind off your worries for a decent period, sex provides some of these other stress management benefits. Deep breathing as relaxed type of breathing relaxes your body, oxygenates your blood and reduces the stress you feel. Sense of touch is important, because massage can be a great stress reliever. In fact, we need touch for our emotional health. Studies also show that babies who are not touched enough can fail to thrive, and touch continues to be important into adulthood. Social support tends to manage stress better, live longer, and enjoy increased overall health. The type of emotional intimacy that sex can help supply is good for all of us. Endorphins released from sexual activity are very important to prevent stress. Sex is also able to release some other feel-good hormones. Physical workout you could have during sex, depending on your level of enthusiasm, can burn many calories. That is why you could gain the stress management benefits of exercise as well. Unfortunately, many people find that, when they are under stress, their sex drive suffers and libido is low. In fact, a recent study showed that more than half the partners of people working over 48 hours a week reported that it was damaging their sexual life. Fortunately, the same factors that can decrease the level of stress you feel can rev up your libido at the same time as vicious circle.
