Orgasms are GOOD for you? Here are 8 reasons:

1 - climaxing can relieve headaches and menstrual cramps by increasing blood flow and levels of endorphins (natural painkiller) in your body

2 - Orgasms double as cardiovascular fitness, briefly increasing your heart rate to levels comparable to those you achieve when you sprint

3 - Orgasms help you breathe easily - literally. As breathing increases to maximum levels, residual air is cleared from deep in the lungs

4 - Climaxing temporarily improves complexion and removes fine wrinkles. As blood surges through your capillaries, the surface of your skin tightens and develops a rosy glow

5 - Having one orgasm improves your chances of having another! In a classic case of "use it or lose it" orgasms help develop the nerve pathways that travel from the site of stimulation to the brain. If the pathways become weak from under use, you run the risk of losing some orgasmic ability

6 - Orgasms increase breast size - if only for a maximum of a few hours. This is a happy side effect of increased chest muscle tone and the engorgement caused by heightened blood flow

7 - Your vaginal and pelvic muscles expand and contract during climax, toning them and helping prevent urinary-stress incontinence

8 - During orgasm, your metabolism increases momentarily, helping to burn calories!! Sex as a weight-loss plan? Now that's a program anyone can stick to! HA HA
