How is your sex life affecting your health? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. Procreation is no longer the only known benefit of sex. A new study out of The Journal of Health and Social Behavior states that lowered risk for high blood pressure in women can be a nice side effect of satisfying sex. It can also increase activity of brain networks, such as pain, emotion, and reward centers. Many studies suggest that having sex can improve mood, decrease stress, and lead to better sleep. So, light a few candles and see where the night takes you and your partner. After all, you will love the health benefits! Of course, it is important to practice safe sex within a monogamous relationship.
