Jakarta –
Some people are used to starting the morning with breakfast or a cup of hot coffee. Some others, believe that starting the day with ‘morning sex’ can make a good mood all day. The reason is not only to raise the mood, morning sex also helps increase energy and relieve stress.
Quoted from Healthline, there are several benefits of sex in the morning. Here are the benefits.
1. The body is more primed and ready to move
The morning is the perfect time to make love because the body is ready after a night’s rest. Estrogen and testosterone levels are at their peak during the morning. A 2013 study found that libido is affected by hormone levels. The higher the hormone levels, the higher the arousal.
2. Men are more ‘durable’
The more testosterone, the better the sex. High testosterone levels increase partner arousal according to a study in 2007. In addition, testosterone also increases erectile strength.
3. Releases the ‘cuddle hormone’ or oxytocin
Morning sex is also believed to be effective in making couples stickier. This is because sex produces oxytocin, a chemical in the brain that controls love and bonding. When this hormone is released, you will feel more connected to your partner.
4. Stress dealer
A 2010 study found pleasurable activities reduced stress hormone levels. That is, reaching climax during sex before going to work can put you in a better mood.
5. Produce endorphins
Morning sex produces endorphins, which are painkilling hormones and elevate mood. That’s why you usually feel happier after you climax.
