If you like sex, going through a “dry spell” can feel like a massive change for the body and mind. Some may feel irritable and antsy, while others will just feel overwhelmingly horny. Now sexperts explain exactly what happens to your body when you stop fucking: “In the same way we might experience a reduced confidence, muscle tightness and overall deconditioning from not exercising, people who haven’t had sex, or who stop having sex for prolonged periods may experience deconditioning to sexual activities and find that they have muscle tightness or soreness, difficulties in ejaculatory control and a loss of confidence in sexual activity.”
When it comes to hormones, “the chemicals released during sexual pleasure, whether solo or with others, include oxytocin, endorphins, serotonin and dopamine,” a sexpert explains. Similarly, sexual activity and pleasure can help to lower stress by reducing levels of cortisol, “which can impact mood and immune system.” In short, having sex can be great for your health—it can bolster a couple’s intimacy, and resilience, boost body confidence, lower anxiety and depression, and improve mood.
