Doctor’s Orders: Orgasm Once Weekly
Women can have four different types of orgasm throughout the month because of the hormonal changes we experience. Dude, this is a serious reason to consider ending that pill pack. Believe it or not, I have to make the case for why women should have orgasms not only to other women but also to my professional colleagues. Because—no joke—how many doctors are like, “Orgasms are nice, but they’re not really necessary for women”? That’s a straight-out lie. Besides feeling amazing, orgasms have incredible health benefits. They can reduce stress and anxiety, increase circulation, and improve autoimmune disease, menstrual cycles, and fertility. They also can give you glowing skin, relieve migraines, and result in better sleep. Orgasms can even help you live longer! So if you’re not currently enjoying regular orgasms, start making it a priority. Doctor’s orders!
When you have an orgasm, you release oxytocin, often called the “love hormone” because it increases your feelings of affection or bonding with your partner. It also promotes social bonding in general. Oxytocin can counter the negative effects of cortisol, so it can help relieve stress. It can even sharpen your intuition, and it may be why some women are so successful. See? Orgasms are even good for your career! Research has shown that oxytocin also can reduce anxiety and social anxiety.
Most of us spend way too much time sitting—whether that’s at a desk at work or in front of a television at night. So much sitting is not good for the body and can even lead to decreased circulation in the pelvis. Orgasms can increase circulation to the pelvic floor organs, helping nutrients and hormones get where they need to go. Hula-hooping, hula dancing, and belly dancing can help too, but let’s be honest: orgasms are way more fun.
