What happens to the body without sex?
A healthy sex life offers numerous physical and mental benefits, like better heart health, a stronger immune system, lower stress, and pain relief. But, what if you choose not to have sex? Is abstinence bad for your health?
Whether you choose to delay your first sexual experience or decide to stop having sex for some time, experts say nothing is wrong with abstinence.
Are you worried that you’ll be missing out on the physical benefits that sex brings? If so, don’t forget that you can get them through non-sexual means:
Pain relief
If you want the pain-relieving benefits of sex, remember that you can work out. Like sex, exercises like aerobic workouts also release endorphins, the body’s natural pain-killers.
Better heart health
Do you want to improve your heart health? Remember that staying physically active and maintaining a balanced diet is also good for the heart.
Stronger immune system
Are you looking for immune-boosting activities? A healthy diet, regular exercise, and adequate sleep are just some of the practices that boost our immunity.
Furthermore, you can get the physical and mental benefits of orgasms without having a sexual partner through masturbation.
