Oxytocin is responsible for feelings of attachment and closeness, Dr. Britton emphasizes. Researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and the University of North Carolina conducted a study of 59 premenopausal, postmenopausal, and pre-sex women and found that the more women wanted to cuddle with their partner after intercourse, the higher the level of of oxytocin in their body. Oxytocin is also linked to feelings of generosity, so don’t be surprised if you feel more generous towards your partner after sex. 7. benefit Oxytocin stimulates the release of endorphins.

If men in their twenties ejaculate five or more times a week, they reduce their risk of prostate cancer by 1/3 at a much later age, say scientists. With frequent ejaculation, 21 or more times a month, the risk of prostate cancer is significantly reduced, compared to the cases of 4-7 times achieved ejaculation per month, was mentioned in the Journal of the American Medical Association in an analysis of another study.10. benefit There are women who have very weak pelvic muscles, which is a prerequisite for some health problems.
