No Need For Drugs, Masturbate Instead!
Far gone are the days of shaming masturbation. We’re now coming to embrace masturbation as a part of self love, and even for its health benefits! An orgasm a day can be used to treat pain from chronic illnesses and to manage discomfort with an immediate effect. For both men and women alike.
Why Does This Happen?
Neurotransmitters are released during masturbation that assists with relieving pain. These chemicals include dopamine, serotonin, and epinephrine. They flow through the brain, the nervous system, and muscles.
Masturbation relaxes muscles immediately, which can help with soreness and body aches. It can also be psychological - coping with the anxiety of pain is part of its source.
How Effective Is It?
One famous study from 2013 found that 50% of 100 participants who suffered from migraines got relief from having sex during a migration. Another study found that women are less likely to notice their fingers squeezed by a machine when masturbating due to lower pain perception. A third study found that women’s pain tolerance increases 40% and testosterone by 74% when resulting in orgasm.
Pain mitigation can last from 10 minutes all the way to 48 hours!
What’re Practical Applications For This?
One of the most common ailments this can treat is UTIs! You may have even noticed yourself from self-experimentation. It can relieve burning feelings while peeing for a few hours.
Another writer reports that her fibromyalgia pain could be relieved, and even that “orgasm is one of the most fast-acting things [she] could do for temporary relief.”
Migraines are also very common sources of pain, occurring in 20% of women. Endorphins and oxytocin from masturbation activate opioid receptors in the brain (the same that are triggered by pain medications)!
And finally, a pain that most women experience, period pain! It helps to increase blood flow to the pelvic area and to relax muscles, reducing the intensity of cramps.
For some other practical uses, masturbation can help with muscle aches and pains, depression, anxiety, and insomnia.
Don’t be shy, and get to masturbating! Your body needs it. If you’re looking for a new dildo, get one like no other from us! Dupe a Dick (literally) and create a dildo out of it.
