In a study involving 818 men in their 50s who were tracked for more than a decade, scientists found those who had poor sex lives showed a faster decline on memory tests than those who did not. Scientists suggested this may be because individuals with poor sex lives were&nbsp;more likely to face chronic stress, which could cause atrophy of the areas of the brain linked to memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But they also suggested it could be a sign of poor heart health, which is also known to raise the risk of memory problems. Other theories included lower levels of testosterone, which could lead to a smaller hippocampus, involved in memory.
