There are many physical and emotionalbenefits to having sex and orgasms, including:
• Reduced stress levels
• Improved sleep
• Release of oxytocin, which promotes bonding
• Release of other "feelgood" hormones like dopamine
• Supports stronger pelvic floor muscles
• Promotes stronger commitment in relationships
• Promotes relationship satisfaction
However, not all sex is created equal.
"Good sex is what&39;s important," Zimmerman stresses. "Bad sex that is obligatory, going through the motions, painful, resentful, hostile, or worse, isn&39;t going to provide benefits."
