Women become vulnerable to insomnia when they stop having sex, because the hormones responsible for sleep, such as prolactin and oxytocin, are reduced in brain production when they stop having sex.

Abstinence from sexual intercourse has negative effects on the mental health of women, because there are hormones that increase feelings of stress and insomnia, and their levels rise in the body when they stop having sex, such as cortisol.
