There are many reasons why married couples should definitely consider having sex every night. However, unfortunately, sex is one of the first things that begins to deteriorate in a marriage, especially after having kids. With all of the new responsibilities that come with taking care of another human being, we often forget to take care of ourselves and to spend time together as an intimate, adult couple. Here are 10 great reasons why you should seriously consider having sex with your spouse every night:

It causes you to live longer

Studies have consistently shown, not surprisingly, that there is a direct correlation between how long you live to how much sex you have. A comprehensive study done by The University of Belfast, published in 1997 in the British Medical Journal, found that men who reported a high frequency of orgasms (two or more per week), had a lower death rate than men of the same age whose sex lives were less intense. Sex is the lost fountain of youth.

Because you’ll look younger

Sex makes people look younger. Research findings indicate that maintaining a consistent sex life increases your chances of maintaining a more youthful appearance for a much longer period of time. This can include: shiny hair, a radiant face, soft and supple skin, and sparkling eyes. Why is that? Studies have revealed that during sex, there is an increasedsecretion of hormones such as estrogen, DHEA, and many others thatwill boost and maintain the renewal and regeneration of skin cells. This promotes elasticity which would normally start to deteriorate later in life and maintains that coveted youthful glow.

Stress Relief

Medically speaking, having sex in general can be a great way to help relieve stress. Having sex every night is just a bonus to help ensure that stress is a problem of the past. It’s a great way to recharge after a long day. Although this may sound ironic, it does actually help you to feel energized regardless of how taxing it may seem to do so beforehand.

Because it reduces your chances of getting cancer (specifically Prostate Cancer)

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer found in men worldwide, as there are hundreds of thousands of men diagnosed with this illness each year. Research has discovered that sex and masturbation may reduce the chances of the disease, because they lower the concentration of carcinogenic substances foundin prostate fluid.According to the study, men who slept with more than 20 women reduced their risk of developing the disease by about a third.

It will make you more attractive

The more sex you have, the more attractive you are. Why? The logic is actually quite simple. When we are sexually active, our bodies automatically releases chemicals into the air called pheromones, which act as our natural sexual perfume. Because this scent lingers around us for some time afterwards, people who we come into contact with will find us much more sexually attractive than normal. This is the reason why, during the beginning stages of a relationship, it may seem that many different people are trying to flirt with us.

It will make your relationship much better

Perhaps one of the most important reasons to have sex every night is because of the connection boost that it gives you and your spouse. It can be hard to stay connected with kids, work, school, and any other number of things that are going on. It’s a great way to show that you still care about your spouse, your marriage, and about your future together as a couple. It’s like having a mini-honeymoon daily. It brings back all of the pleasant memories that you have formed over your marriage and helps you to see your spouse in a positive light.

You can think of it as a way to reward yourself for all of the hard work you do the rest of the time and it’s a great way to remind yourself of why you married your husband or wife in the first place. Remember to take time out for fun and life will be much happier in the long run.

Sex is the best gym in the world and it’s free!

This is probably the most popular workout on Earth. Having sex is a great way to burn a LOT of calories in a very short period of time. It’s definitely easier and much more convenient than going to the gym. It also keeps you healthy and can actually help you lose weight as well.

It will make you happy

By having sex on a regular basis, you are ensuring that your happiness levels go up and that you’re a much more pleasant person to be around. Having sex helps to boost your mood and also helps you to feel love and appreciated by your spouse. This helps keep you in a positive frame of mind and can greatly improve every other aspect of your life if you allow it to.

It the best natural medication for pain relief

When we reach an orgasm a multitude of hormones is being released, including endorphins and Enkephalins, which are released in our brain and act as our body’s natural pain relievers. This can help with any type of pain, from headaches, and joint pain to migraine headaches and even mild depression. By lowering stress levels, regular sex contributes to the expansion of the brain’s blood vessels, also known as vasodilation. This works to relieve one of the main causes of headaches, which iswhich is the constriction of these blood vessels.

It will give you better sleep

Because you expend so much energy and calories when you have sex, it is also a great way to guarantee that you get great sleep. It helps to regulate your hormones and helps you to relax so that you are able to get to sleep and stay asleep. It also enhances the quality of your sleep so that you feel well rested and energized in the morning.

Having sex every night may initially sound a bit extreme to some or perhaps too tiring to even consider. However, giving it a chance could truly change your marriage from the inside out. By making the decision to invest more in your spouse and in yourself, you are taking care of your marriage and of each other. This will then be reflected for your kids, who will see how loving parents treat each other and can definitely help you to maintain a strong connection over the years.
