More fun, more health: why satisfying sexuality is a pure wellness program

Let's be honest: who doesn't think of vegetables, jogging or vitamin pills when they think of "health"? But a real health booster is right under our noses... or rather, under the comforter. Satisfying sexuality is like a free all-round feel-good program for the body, mind and relationship - and it's also really fun.

And the best thing is: with the right condom size from Mister Size, you can concentrate fully on the moment - without tugging, slipping or headaches.

1. Body in top form - the physiological benefits

• Heart in beat: Regular sex with all the trimmings (yes, we're talking about orgasms!) can lower your blood pressure, boost blood flow and make your cardiovascular system happy (Brody, Biological Psychology, 2006).
• Happiness cocktail in your blood: During sex, your body mixes a hormone drink of oxytocin, endorphins and less cortisol - which means: more relaxation, less stress.
• Bye-bye pain: headaches as an excuse? Sorry, no longer works. Endorphins during sex can actually alleviate migraines, period pains and the like.
• Immune power: Studies show: People who have sex regularly have higher IgA levels - these are the bodyguards of your immune system (Cohen et al., Psychological Reports, 2004).
• Sleep like a baby: Oxytocin and prolactin after orgasm send you gently into the land of dreams.

2. Good mood guaranteed - the psychological benefits

• Melt away stress: Sex is probably the best anti-stress button you can press. Your blood pressure relaxes and so does your head (Brody & Costa, Biological Psychology, 2009).
• Mood booster: More closeness, exercise and hormone action - it's like antidepressant light, only with more fun.
• Self-esteem deluxe: Those who feel good in bed also radiate this outside of bed. Positive sexual experiences are really good for your body image and self-confidence.

3. Relationship love to the power of 10 - the social benefits

• Pure bonding: Oxytocin not only makes you cuddly, but also strengthens trust and closeness.
• Talk, don't keep quiet: Those who talk openly about their desires in bed often do the same in other areas of life.
• Less arguments, more togetherness: couples with a fulfilling love life report fewer arguments - and more time for the things they really enjoy.

4. Bonus level - the long-term effects

• More orgasms, more years: long-term studies show: More frequent orgasms = longer life (Davey Smith et al., BMJ, 1997).
• Brain jogging included: Sex in old age can improve memory performance (Wright & Jenks, The Journals of Gerontology, 2016).
• In other words: have fun and keep your brain fit.

5. World Sexual Health Day - Reminder for your well-being

When we talk about how much sexuality strengthens the body, mind and relationship, one date fits particularly well into the picture: World Sexual Health Day, every year on September 4.

This day of action makes visible worldwide what we have already felt in this article: Sexuality is far more than pleasure - it is a central component of health and quality of life.

The World Association for Sexual Health (WAS) launched the day to remind people that sexual health is just as important as exercise, nutrition or health:

• is just as important as exercise, nutrition or sleep,

• includes physical, psychological and social aspects,

• and that everyone has a right to a fulfilled, self-determined sexuality.

The day thus picks up on the points we have already looked at:

• Physiologically: sex acts like a free wellness program for the heart, circulation, immune system & sleep.

• Psychological: Closeness, hormones and self-confidence make stress disappear and good moods grow.

• Social: Openness and trust strengthen relationships - in bed and in everyday life.

• Long-term: Those who enjoy and live sexuality stay vital, mentally fit and often even healthier for longer.

So World Sexuality Day reminds us not to see sexuality as a luxury or a side issue, but as a real health booster that strengthens us day after day - without a prescription.

And the best thing is: with the right condom size from Mister Size, you can feel completely carefree. Because when everything fits, sex is not only better - it's also exactly what it should be: Pure quality of life and a bit of wellness for you and your relationship.
