Having intercourse more than twice a week as a woman can boost immunity, improve heart health, reduce stress and anxiety, strengthen the pelvic floor and improve sleep!
Regular intercourse boosts immunity by increasing levels of immunoglobulin A (IgA), an antibody that helps fight infections, and by improving sleep and reducing stress through the release of hormones like endorphins and oxytocin.
Regular intercourse also improves heart health by acting as a form of exercise, reducing stress, lowering blood pressure and promoting better sleep. Sexual activity increases heart rate, which is beneficial for circulation, and the intimacy involved can lead to stronger social bonds, which are also linked to lower risk of heart disease.
Also, having intercourse more than twice a week can reduce stress and anxiety by triggering the release of “feel good” hormones like oxytocin and endorphins, which lower stress hormones such as cortisol. This hormonal response promotes relaxation and mood elevation, while the increased intimacy can deepen emotional connection and improve sleep, further contributing to stress relief.
Having intercourse more than twice a week as a woman can also strengthen the pelvic floor by providing a natural workout, as arousal causes muscle tension and orgasms trigger involuntary muscle contractions. This regular activity, particularly the contractions during orgasm, gives the pelvic floor a workout similar to Kegel exercises, which can improve bladder control, enhance sexual satisfaction and help prevent pelvic floor disorders.
