Does the lack of sex cause increase in the rate of aging?
There really is no proof that lack of sex causes aging, however there are a lot of benefits from having sex. Having regular sex increases estrogen levels, which stave off dryness and improve skin elasticity. It clears an acne breakout, individuals who have more sex have even been proven to sleep better, and we all know how a good night’s rest is connected to skincare. And I think when you boost those anti-inflammatory molecules by having sex, it is certainly helps treat acne.
Sex makes your skin physically glow. Sexual intercourse also boosts our immune system, prevents stagnation, allows us to feel more alive and sweat out toxins from our pores.
This translates to our skin’s radiance and being more at ease with facial expression as we use our facial muscles to express ourselves during a sexual encounter. Ultimately, giving a post-sex glow and possibly helping to ward off wrinkles. Sweating is sure to impart a dewy glow, however Dr. Wechsler said that it is an increase in circulation that triggers the flush. Besides sex, there is only one other activity that releases the anti-aging hormone oxytocin, and that is childbirth.
