Rebuilding relationships researched the possible health benefits of sex are spelled out in a soon-to-be-published article in the Journal of Sexual Medicine. In the article, which reviews several decades’ worth of studies on sex and health, researcher Stuart Brody concludes that penile-vaginal intercourse — and not other types of sexual activity — confer the most health benefits. In a British study, men who had intercourse at least twice a week lived longer than men who had sex less than once a month. A U.S. study had similar findings, and a Swedish study examining the sex lives of 70-year-olds found that men who died before their 75th birthday had ceased having sexual intercourse at earlier ages. People who had intercourse twice a week or more were less likely to have heart attacks and other fatal coronary events. Those who had sex less than once a month had twice the rates of fatal coronary events, compared with those with the highest frequency of intercourse. Other benefits include: Lower blood pressure, Lower risk of breast cancer, Lower risk of prostate cancer, Pain relief, A slimmer physique, Better testosterone levels, Fewer menopause symptoms, and Healthier semen.
