    #HealthBytes: How lack of sex impacts your health

    A satisfying sex life results in overall emotional, physical, and mental well-being of couples. However, people often go slow in bed, for varying reasons. They might be busy, or don't have a partner, or just want some time off. Whatever be the reason, prolonged lack of sex is detrimental for your general health. Here's how.

    Stress and anxiety

    If you don't get to make love to your partner often enough, it is bound to impact your relationship, and make you feel less connected to them. This can increase anxiety and harm your ability to cope with stress. Also, lack of sex means a reduced release of stress-cutting hormones like oxytocin and endorphins, thus affecting your ability to fight stress.

    It may also affect your memory

    Research, although limited, also suggests that people who have sex regularly are better at recounting memories than those who are sexually inactive. On another note, frequent sex is also believed to contribute to your brain's general growth and working.

    Not having enough sex might damage your immune system

    Regular sex keeps your immunity intact, thus boosting your ability to fight illness. Who doesn't want flu and colds less frequently? A certain study found out that participants who had sex at least once a week had greater levels of an antibody (immunoglobulin A) that is vital for the immune system. So, get more active under the sheets in order to stay healthy.

    Bad impact on vaginal health

    In the absence of regular vaginal intercourse, a woman might suffer from tightening of vagina and thinning of vaginal tissues, which may further lead to injury or even bleeding down there. This is exactly why having sex frequently becomes important for post-menopausal women, as it can help reduce chances of issues like vaginal dryness and irritation.

    Sexual deprivation might also ruin your relationship

    Plenty of studies indicate that couples who have sex more frequently are happier and more satisfied with their relationships. This is so because sex helps you connect emotionally with your partner and opens communication channels. So, make sure you get cozy from time to time.
