PSYCHOLOGY FACTS ABOUT SEX

One interesting psychological fact about sex is its impact on mental health. Engaging in consensual and satisfying sexual activity has been linked to various mental health benefits, including stress reduction, improved mood, increased feelings of intimacy and connection, and even better self-esteem. The release of certain neurotransmitters during sexual activity, such as oxytocin and endorphins, can contribute to these positive effects on mental well-being. However, individual experiences and contexts greatly influence how sex interacts with mental health for each person.
