Besides the normal pleasures, there are other benefits which are both physical and mental, and  include:

People who have intercourse frequently have higher levels salivary immunoglobulin (IgA),a substance that helps defend your body against viruses, germs and other foreign materials in the body.

What is the Best Time to Have Sex

Choosing the best time to engage in sexual activities can be a total game changer, right? The best timing depends on your age. This is according to a body and sleep expert. Despite being a spontaneous act, libido tends to vary depending on age bracket. Let us discuss the following timings according to Dr Kelley:

15:00 –             At this time, libido is at peak for the young people in their twenties. Energy is

highest at this time and there is much pleasure.

08:20 –             Dr Kelley says that having sex early in the morning is a good idea. At this time,

testosterone is boosted by morning sunlight in both men and women in their thirties.

22:20 –            When you start getting older, you tend to be more alert and  busy in the mornings. People in their forties and fifties tend to go to bed early and Dr. Kelley recommend that they have sex before they go to sleep.

20:00 –            After  you hit orgasm, a wakefulness hormone called oxytocin is released. This is the reason why people above sixties would want to have sex before they turn to sleep.

Apart from the above timings, there are also circumstances which can determine the best timing. These are:

1. In the Mornings – This is a perfect way to begin your day. According to sex expert Jessica O’Reilly, not only energy and testosterone levels are at peak in the morning, but the higher oxytocin levels keep you and your partner bonded throughout the day.
2. Before a Big Presentation – A recent research study shows that people who had sex before big public speaking events are the least stressed. This is because of its effect of calming nerves, lowering blood pressure and reduces stress.
3. Day 14 in Your Cycle – Around two weeks after your cycle, clitoris tends to grow bigger and easily becomes engorged. This means that you may reach orgasm faster around these days and that your body tends to crave for more action since this is the time that ovulation occurs.
4. After Physical Exercises – After that exercise your body tends to be active, blood tends to flow faster to the genital organs and so higher reaction to sexual pleasure.
5. After a Bad Day – According to O’Reilly, angry sex can be a cure to psychological and emotional stress suffered either from workplace or fieldwork. Sex also lowers stress and depression and so improves your mood and lowers your tension.
6. After Doing Something Scary – After that exhilarating experience and getting adrenaline pumping, your body tends to be in a state of arousal and there is heightened sexual response. This in turn makes you enjoy sexual moments and experience maximum pleasure during the intercourse.
