Aches and pains orgasms can cure

Published by

MAJORITY of us when we have an ache or pain or we feel really sick in our body, we go to the doctor, get medications, after which we call it a night. But there is a step we often miss in-between lying in bed and going to sleep; sex and subsequently, an orgasm. Sex and orgasm are not always for fun, or sexy way to spend a night. Both have great healing properties that treat and heal anything from headaches, premenstrual syndrome (PMS) to cramps.

Orgasm is the miracle cure and a sure way to stay healthy and balanced. According to Dr Yinka Griffin, Medical Director, Teju Specialist Hospital, Ring-Road, Ibadan, natural chemicals such as dopamine, endorphins, and serotonin that are released during an orgasm, makes us feel happy, warm, and sleepy. When they enter the bloodstream, these chemicals can induce both pleasure-enhancing and pain-relieving sensations.

Our pain threshold rises during an orgasm, making us more equipped to block the pain. This can help us lessen some of life’s more common pains and discomforts.

Dr Griffin advised that “Next time you have pain, aim for an orgasm instead of reaching for an aspirin. It is a free, fun, healthy way to alleviate some of life’s most common ailments. He gave some examples of these common simple aches; they include;

Headache:  Orgasms can relieve migraine pain or cluster headaches, according to a  study published in the journal Cephalalgia. The researchers found you get relief no matter who your partner is, which position you use, or which type of sexual activity you engage in. However, achieving a full orgasm is necessary in alleviating the pain.

Hiccups:  Hiccups that just won’t go away no matter what you do could physically and mentally drain you. Before you take any medication, try to have an orgasm instead. A recent case study published in the journal Canadian Family Physician said a healthy 40-year-old man made his intractable hiccups disappear for 12 months when he reached the moment of ejaculation during intercourse.

This also works for women, according to another study published in the Journal of Internal Medicine; stated that “digital rectal massage” and orgasms can be a cure-all for intractable hiccups. The vagus nerve needs to be stimulated to alleviate hiccups, which is done during sex.

Morning Sickness: Sex led to morning sickness, and it can also be what alleviates it. Gordon Gallup, an  Albany psychologist, believes in the “hair of the dog” concept when it comes to curing morning sickness — ingesting semen, specifically the impregnator’s semen, so the woman’s body can build up a tolerance to what’s already in her body.

Gallup, who presented his findings at the Northeastern Evolutionary Psychology Society, proposed that the woman’s body initially rejects the father’s semen as an infection and reacts to it by vomiting.

However, the woman will become immune to the semen by swallowing it and could ebb morning sickness in subsequent pregnancies if the second child has the same father as the first. This remedy proposes oral sex may treat one of the most troubling symptoms of pregnancy.

Pre Menstrual Cramps (PMS): Cramps can be one of the most temporary debilitating symptoms women experience every month. Before an orgasm, a woman’s uterus is more relaxed, but at the moment of climax, the blood flow increases, helping to relieve the cramps. The uterine muscles contract during an orgasm while releasing chemicals in the brain that act as a natural pain reliever.

Judith Golden, a registered sex therapist in Toronto, says, “The strength and intensity of an orgasm can relieve cramps.” Women who masturbate often report it helps relieve menstrual cramps and even improve the symptoms of PMS, such as irritability and crankiness.

Orgasm therapy can keep you healthy, fit, and pain-free without the need for going to the medicine cabinet or hospitals.
