"Our 'sexual' well-being is closely related to immunity"?
That's right, it's the immunity that determines whether we can resist viruses and bacteria!
Scientific studies have found that:
If the immunity is high, the probability of the disease coming to the door will be greatly reduced.
On the contrary, if the immunity is low, cold, fever, fatigue and weakness may be frequented!
Ms. Wen and her husband are a loving couple who have been married for three years.
Life after marriage is sweet and fulfilling, especially at night, it is warm and lingering.
Recently, however, Ms. Wen has found herself susceptible to colds.
From time to time, I will have stomach pain and diarrhea, and I have no energy.
She couldn't figure out how she could suddenly become so weak and sickly when she was so young.
Is it too tiring to work? Or is it an improper diet?
When Ms. Wen was at a loss, she decided to see a doctor, hoping to find the cause of her physical discomfort.
At the hospital, Ms. Wen told doctors about her symptoms.
The doctor carefully inquired about her living habits, including work and rest time, diet routine, etc.
To Ms. Wen's surprise, the doctor even asked her and her husband about the frequency of "sexual intercourse".
Ms. Wen was a little embarrassed, but still answered truthfully:
"For the past month, my husband and I have been almost every day..."
The doctor nodded knowingly, and said earnestly:
"Ms. Wen, your physical weakness is most likely related to excessive and frequent sex".
Ms. Wen's eyes widened, unable to believe her ears.
Could it be that "excessive happiness" really affects physical health?
Ms. Wen recalls that in the past month, she and her husband have been singing almost every night.
It seems that overindulgence is indeed bad for the body.
So, every week that... Times? Is it the best health benefit?
When it comes to sex and immunity, you might think they're incompatible.
But in fact, there is a subtle but close connection between the two.
Scientific studies have found that the frequency of our sex life can affect immune function.
This in turn determines the body's ability to resist disease.
This is all thanks to a complex system in our body called the "neuro-endocrine-immune network".
It sounds a bit awkward, but it's actually very interesting.
When we are immersed in the sweet sex life.
The cerebral cortex signals the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
Among them, a substance called "β-endorphins" is attracting attention.
This substance is released in large quantities at the peak of happiness, quickly penetrating into immune cells.
In this way, their activity and function are enhanced.
At the same time, sex stimulates the secretion of an antibody called immunoglobulin A.
They are generally "stationed" on mucosal surfaces such as the mouth, respiratory tract, and intestines.
Build a solid line of defense against the invasion of bacteria and viruses.
Studies have found that sexually active men have higher levels of testosterone in their blood.
And this male hormone has the effect of regulating the immune response.
Similarly, when a woman has sex, there will be significant fluctuations in estrogen and prolactin levels in the body.
And these two hormones also help to enhance immunity.
To put it simply, a moderate sex life can mobilize the body's "immune army".
This improves the body's defenses and stress levels.
But the effects of sex on immunity are a double-edged sword!
Excessive frequency or extreme deficiency can backfire and lead to immune dysfunction.
Therefore, it is important to have a reasonable frequency of sex.
So, how often is the healthiest time to "hey"?
According to a study published in an authoritative medical journal.
People who do 1-2 times a week have 30% higher levels of immunoglobulin A than people who are abstinent!
Immunoglobulin A is an important antibody.
It can protect our respiratory tract and digestive tract from pathogens.
Another study found that men had sex between 1 and 2 times per week.
The risk of prostate cancer is 20% lower than that of men who have sex less frequently.
This is because moderate sexual activity can promote the discharge of prostatic fluid.
Prevents harmful substances from accumulating in the prostate, thereby reducing the risk of cancer.
For women, "hey" 1-2 times a week is also a "golden frequency".
United Kingdom reports that this frequency can keep women's estrogen levels within a reasonable range.
It will not cause pelvic laxity and other problems because it is too low.
It will not increase the risk of breast cancer and endometrial cancer because it is too high.
It seems that a moderate sex life is not only good for the body and mind, but also can enhance the relationship between husband and wife, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone!
Knowing that 1-2 times a week is the best frequency for sex, are you already eager to try it?
But in real life, it's not easy to maintain this frequency.
Work stress, family responsibilities, physical exhaustion...
There are always many factors that stand in the way between us and a good sex life.
But don't worry, with a few tips, you'll be able to break through the obstacles with ease!
1. Create a "schedule".
This does not mean turning sex into a "task".
It's about letting both parties have a psychological expectation and prepare in advance.
You can choose some fixed times, such as weekend mornings or Wednesday evenings.
2. Learn to create "sexual interest".
Sex doesn't happen overnight, it requires plenty of foreplay and flirtatious foreshadowing.
You can pay more attention to your partner's feelings and convey your love with words or bodies.
An affectionate hug and a thoughtful word of concern can bring each other closer.
In the bedroom, try something fresh to spice up your sex life.
3. Don't take sex too seriously.
The reason why many people have difficulty maintaining the frequency of their sex life.
It's because they're putting too much pressure on themselves.
They always feel that sex has to be flawless, that it has to last a long time...
These thoughts only make people more nervous and tired.
In fact, sex is a pleasurable thing, and the key is to enjoy the process.
4. Pay attention to your physical and mental health.
The quality and frequency of sex depends largely on our physical condition.
If you are always tired and stressed, how can you have a wonderful sexual experience?
Therefore, you should pay attention to exercising, ensure adequate sleep, and learn to release stress.
5. Remember to communicate with your partner often.
Everyone's needs and feelings about sex are different.
It is only through open communication that we can understand each other's thoughts and find a rhythm that is comfortable for both parties.
Communication not only fosters understanding and trust, but also helps you identify and solve problems!
Maintaining a good sex frequency may seem simple, but it is actually very knowledgeable.
It requires time and effort on our part, and it requires us to constantly learn and adjust.
But as long as you manage with your heart and nourish with love. #长文创作激励计划#
You will definitely be able to reap your own "sexual" blessing life.
