When the couple having sex, orgasm becomes something that is very important to be able to achieve. However, orgasm is not just about achieving sexual satisfaction alone, but also has a positive effect on health. Unfortunately, most people do not know that orgasm save a lot of health benefits.
Orgasm Equivalent to a cardio workout
Although orgasm can not be considered as an alternative to daily exercise, orgasm also includes cardiovascular activity, such as when you are doing cardio workout.
"Your heart rate increases, blood pressure and breathing you also," said Dr. Jennifer Berman, founder of the Female Sexual Medicine Center at UCLA.
When you have an orgasm, your body also releases endorphins - happy hormones.
In addition to endorphins, dopamine and oxytocin is also released during orgasm. The third of these hormones can improve mood. In fact, dopamine is the same hormone that is released when a person is using drugs such as cocaine or eating something very tasty. In other words, orgasm can make a person feel more calm and relaxed.
Orgasm promises restful sleep for you. A recent survey conducted on 1,800 women found that more than 30 percent of them consider orgasm as a natural tranquilizer.
