‘Good’ Sex Can Lower Blood Pressure The Same As Medicine, Study Says

Screen Shot 2015-08-06 at 4.12.01 PMSex is just what the doctor ordered, according to a study out of Georgia State University. Participants in the study had a 13 percent drop in blood pressure after having sex, to the surprise of US scientists. The study published in the journal Sexual Medicine saw volunteers have sex while wearing a heart monitor, and rated orgasm intensity from 66 to 106, with an average of 87.

Researchers reported: “The more pleasurable the orgasm, the lower the readings on the day after intercourse.” They believe this is because sex boosts oxytocin, which reduces stress. Taking a water pill diuretic, a common treatment for high blood pressure, achieves similar results, they said.
