After a hard stressful day its seems that a good old orgasm is what us women need in order to relax and take the stresses away – an orgasm a day keeps the stress away, or so one of the mothers on my Facebook group thinks, when she posted the following, I had to chuckle;
Don’t you just hate it when you’re so stressed and wound up that you know the only thing that will soothe you is an orgasm? But your partner says “Oh I will make you a brew when I get home “(he’s been out 7 hours). Yeah cause that’s what I need, a good old knee trembling ….cup of tea! MEN!
We now know thanks to a recent report that sex is good for depression and how having sex can alleviate the pain of a headache, so why not stress?
In an Arizona State University study on 58 middle-aged women, physical affection or sexual behavior with a partner significantly predicted lower negative mood and stress, and higher positive mood the following day.
By having a clitoral orgasm, a large amount of oxytocin is released. This hormone is not at all essential to conceive, but is needed to regulate hormone levels impaired by stress and/or the menstrual cycle. Oxytocin deficiency enhances stress, obesity and psychotic behaviour, impairs cognitive functions and increases breast-cancer risk. The Medical Need For Orgasms In Women told me.
Orgasm itself has many benefits for health and stress relief about.com tells us, so ladies if you’re stressed go off and have an orgasm, after the day I have had I may just put this to the test, but then again not sure I even have the energy.
What do you think ladies? Does an orgasm a day keep the stress away?
