Good sex can delay your wrinkles.
Want to look and feel younger than you are? Various studies and research conducted across the globe have found that good sex has a lot of benefits and is a huge contributor to making you look younger, improving the quality of your life and boost your immune system.
Here's a look at some of the health benefits...
Feel-good hormones slow ageing
Doctors say that when one enjoys sex, there are endorphins secreted in the body called the feel-good hormones. Senior consultant in sexual medicine Dr Rajan Bhonsle says, "These feel-good hormones are literally like a tonic for a person. They help every single system of the body feel better as well as to have a healthier status. They are also generally helpful for the nervous as well as the cardiovascular system. And if you maintain good health, ageing process automatically slows down. When you are pursuing a sexual activity, it may not be a partner sex, it might just be masturbating or self-pleasuring, without feeling guilty if you are self-pleasuring with a frequency of once a week or more, at whatever age you are it is definitely beneficial"
Dermatologists say that when a person has sex, the oxytocin and beta endorphins are released and that can help in slowing down the ageing process. After an orgasm, feel-good hormones and love hormones are released (oxytocins) that lower your cortisol levels. This lowering of the stress hormones has a great effect on your skin say doctors. Your skin imperfections are less noticeable.
Prolactin gives you that 'happily drowsy' feeling after a satisfying session in bed. Dr Preeti Devnani neurologist and sleep disorder specialist says that during sleep our skin regenerates. The antioxidants released during deep slumber helps to fight off effects of skin damaging sun and oxidation.
A good workout is like an anti-ageing pill
Fitness experts reiterate that with age metabolism decreases and so working out and weight training is essential to work the unused muscles. Asif Shaikh, fitness professional says, "A person who exercises regularly, looks at least ten years younger than he is. Work outs are like anti-ageing pills without the side effects."
Experts and researchers state that workouts and sex can slow down the ageing process considerably.
Dr Rajan says, "It is like a cardiovascular exercise." The invigorating act raises your heart rate and promotes circulation throughout your body. This gives you healthier, radiant skin because the sweat-session flushes out accumulated dirt, grime, make-up reside from the pores of your skin.
Regular ejaculation can keep prostrate healthy
Doctors say that for the health of the prostrate gland, ejaculating periodically, preferably at least twice or thrice a week is ideal. This almost acts like a preventive measure when it comes to problems related to the prostrate. Dr Bhonsle says, "Regular self pleasuring, masturbation, partner sex and ejaculation - all this is extremely helpful for overall good health."
Orgasms can give the much-needed exercise to the vaginal wall
A woman reaching her climax either through sex with a partner or through self pleasuring, is required too because this gives the much-needed exercise to her pelvic muscles. Dr Rajan says, "We advise women to strengthen their pelvic muscles by doing the Kegel's exercise but this naturally get an exercise when she experiences an orgasm - because there are the rhythmic contractions of her pelvic floor and even the vaginal wall which is healthy for her."
Sex elevates your mood
When women have an orgasm, the 'love hormone' oxytocin is released and this helps to elevate their mood. Gayatri Singh* a 28-year-old, executive working with an MNC says, "I live-in with my boyfriend and the intimate time we spend together despite our busy schedules are the highlight of our lives. The instant mood elevation is unmistakable."

Sexologist Dr Prakash Kothari adds, "Orgasm could work as an anti-depressant because the moment a man ejaculates he gets tremendous pleasure that gets rid of all worries and issues he might have." This in turn can lead to slowing down the ageing process.
Studies have found that semen could lower depression
Researchers GG Gallup, RL Burch, and psychologist Steven M Platek of the State University of New York, conducted a survey and compared sex lives of 293 females to their mental health. They hypothesized that women who are exposed to semen showed fewer signs of depression.
So how does sex actually help?
- Doctors have found that making love releases the human growth hormone. This hormone is responsible to keep the skin elastic, thereby fine lines and wrinkles are less likely to show up.
- A healthy dose of sex releases endorphins. These feel-good chemicals are painkillers. After some satisfactory action between the sheets, anxiety is naturally eased and the person falls asleep easily and your body gets more time to wash out the toxins.
- Sex definitely boosts blood circulation. This promotes heart health and gives your skin that healthy radiance of youth.
- Having regular sex helps to burn fat and bolsters immune system.
- In a Welsh heart disease study, the mortality risk was 50 per cent lower in the group of men with high orgasmic frequency (twice a week or more) than in the group with low frequency.
- Studies claim that a healthy sex life is the real secret to looking younger.
- Sex does make you feel good, unless there are moral issues associated with it - if you feel bad about indulging in self-pleasuring, if there is a judgment associated with having a sexual feeling or a sexual desire.
