In the documentary "The One-Week Sex Improvement Experiment," the camera crew invited ten couples who were unhappy with the state of their marriages to participate in a sex experiment, which was simple: in one week, no matter how much they argued or gambled, they had to have sex, for seven days straight.

One of the leading couples in the experiment, Julia and Anthony, have been married for eight years, and the biggest problem in their marriage is apathy and fighting. Basically, fighting is their way of communicating, and sex is only twice a month, and if it happens to be a fight, it's gone twice... ...

Day 1: Anthony didn't strike up a conversation with his wife, but played with his pet on the sidelines. Despite the awkward relationship, the two had to finish snapping, and despite some unpleasantness, Anthony walked into his wife's room to finish the task. After the task was over, Julia smiled and said: Although a little embarrassed, but still very happy, even a little unfulfilled.

Day 2: After a fish-out-of-water session, Julia decided to introduce her friends and colleagues to her husband so that they could have more in common. The two were harmonious at first, but once they got home, they began to accuse and quarrel again, the husband accusing his wife of nagging and the wife disgusted with his manner of speaking.

But the task still had to be carried out, Anthony made concessions, he appeased his wife, and then the two ushered in a second night of sweet ......

Day 3: Julia decided to write a love letter to Anthony. Two romantic nights made Julia seem to return to a little girl state, the love letter was full of expectations of happiness. Her husband was touched when he received the love letter. On the third day, the Julia's mission was successfully completed.

Day 4: The couple seemed to go back to the old days, when it was time to show love and flirt, and the mission was completed.

Day 5: Anthony realized that sleeping in separate rooms was seriously affecting married life, so he cleared out his wife's room, thinking that the couple must sleep in the same room. After sharing the room, the two began to flirt, and of course there was no shortage of intimate scenes.

Day 6: An even hotter night than before.

Day 7: After a week of sex, the Julia's are as close as they've ever been, and they have a confession ceremony with each other's best friends to witness it.

Is sex really that powerful? But through the documentary, we know that at least this couple did change a lot after the experiment.

I. What happens to people who have sex at least once a week in the end?

There was this survey: the less sex you have, the earlier you go through menopause.

The study, published in Society Open Science, was conducted by researchers from University College London and was based on data from the National Study of Women's Health (SWAN), which collected information from 2,936 women with an average age of 45 years. Women who had sex at least once a week had a 28% lower risk of menopause compared to women who had sex monthly.

Researchers believe that frequency of sex is associated with the likelihood of pregnancy, and that during ovulation, when a woman's immune function is compromised, her body is more vulnerable to disease.

If sex is less frequent and the likelihood of pregnancy is low, the body makes a trade-off between continuing to ovulate and stopping ovulation to better protect the body, and so menopause may be more likely to occur.

There have been claims floating around that people who don't have sex are more likely to have premature ovarian failure, lowered immunity, and endocrine disorders, is that true?

Premature ovarian failure refers to the failure of ovarian function, and the maintenance of ovarian function depends on the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, which has nothing to do with sex.

As for the claim that immunity declines, there have been studies that have found that sexually active women have significantly higher production of immune indicators such as immunoglobulins, meaning that sex instead helps improve immunity.

As for endocrine, it's a very large, complex system. Normal sex does stimulate hormone secretion in a woman's body, but it's only minor fluctuations in the body, and even without sex, the body will still secrete as usual. The real impact of the endocrine is more in the late night, stress, obesity, etc.

Two, people who have sex, their bodies or 4 changes

By snapping, not only does the body secrete dopamine, which makes people happy, but it also produces oxytocin, which affects a person's physical health.

1. Better sleep and suppression of drug dependency

Oxytocin, also known as oxytocin, has the ability to contract the uterus and speed up the birthing process. Subsequent studies have found that part of oxytocin can act on the central nervous system, affecting physiological, psychological, and behavioral activities.

Some studies have shown that oxytocin is mutually resistant to the stress hormone cortisol and can promote sleep, and it can also inhibit the brain's fear centers as well as inhibit drug dependence.

2. Pain relief

Snapping can also be used as a "painkiller. During a migraine or cluster headache, sexual activity can help the body release endorphins, improving pain tolerance and reducing pain in some patients.

3, Improve immunity

There are significant differences in the regulation of the immune system between sexually active women and abstinent women. One study that collected data on women's menstrual cycles found that sexually active women had elevated levels of immunoglobulins during the luteal and follicular phases.

4. Soothing stressful emotions

A study from the School of Social Sciences at Paisley University found that when fapping, people were less likely to have elevated blood pressure when experiencing stress, and that the act of fapping helped curb anxiety, soothe emotions, and soothe tension.

There is no age limit to these changes, and even in middle age, proper sex can reap the above benefits.

3. 1 time a week vs. 3 times a week, which is healthier?

How often is it best to have sex? How about once a week or 3 times a week?

There is no specific answer to the frequency of sex, and in reality, the situation is often more complicated, whether it is once a week or three times a week, as long as your body can adapt and satisfy, that is a healthy, normal sex life.

A previous Harvard study also gave advice, in which researchers analyzed data from 32,000 men over 18 years and found that ejaculating more than 21 times a month reduced the incidence of prostate cancer.

Researchers speculate that frequent ejaculation helps drain cancer-causing secretions that accumulate in the prostate bladder and therefore helps reduce the risk of cancer. Of course, the study data is for reference only, and the exact frequency of sex should still depend on the couple's situation.

So how long is normal for a session to last?

For some couples, it only takes a few minutes for both partners to be satisfied, while others may need a little longer to feel satisfied. But if the pistoning is less than 1 minute and you ejaculate prematurely, it's time to take it seriously.

Couple life is an emotional reconciliation, so don't be a hero in the process, and stop or seek medical attention if you feel unwell.
