A healthy sex life makes men live longer

Read Time:2 Minute, 1 Second

Italian medical researchers carried out a series of studies as part of the conference, and found that a healthy sex life means fewer cardiovascular problems for men.

The investigation was carried out by the Italian Society of Sexual Medicine who are holding their annual congress in the city of Modena.

Dr Emmanuele Jannini, coordinator of the research, said: “What was evident from the research was that men who had active sex lives and were faithful to their partners had fewer cardiovascular complaints and lived longer.

“Increased sexual activity produces more testosterone, which leads to less depression and a better cardiovascular performance which means an improved metabolism.”

Dr Jannini said the research has been carried out by the University of Florence on 4,000 men and the study revealed that those who were unfaithful had a poor cardiovascular performance because they were “also coping with the increased stress of their infidelity.”

She added that the study had shown a poor quality sex life could also lead to depression.

Dr Jannini added that an increased amount of testosterone produced during sex was good for men because it burned off excess sugars and reduced the risk of heart disease.

She added: “People who have diabetes especially benefit from a healthy sex life and an active sex life also helps avoid prostate problems for men.”

Testosterone is the principal male sex hormone and is an anabolic steroid.

Previous research has shown that it is essential for health and wellbeing as well as the prevention of osteoporosis.

The conference also heard how too much time spent speaking on mobile telephones appears to “put sperm to sleep” and can pose a risk for male fertility.

According to the preliminary results of a study by Rome’s La Sapienza University and the Santa Maria Goretti Hospital at Latina, south of the capital, “there is a correlation between cellphone use and a worsening in sperm mobility.”

Andrea Lenzi, president of the Italian Society of Andrology and Sexual Medicine (SIAMS), said: “The waves appear to put the sperm to sleep.

“The data are, however, preliminary and we are verifying the presence of other factors: people who speak on their cellphones a lot are often more stressed or they smoke and drink more, and that can impact sperm quality.”

The study, which examined sperm from men using mobile phones from a minimum of half an hour to a maximum of four hours a day.
