Sex improves the sense of smell. When you perform sex the
production of the hormone prolactin is promoted, which causes stem
cells in the brain to develop new neurons in the olfactory bulb,
the smell center in the brain. Sex enhances the growth of the
hormones that cleans the harmful toxins in the human body. Just
before orgasm, sex increases the levels of the hormone oxytoxin by
five times more than the normal level. In turn oxytoxin releases
the endorphins that give the relief for pain or inflammation. Thus,
the frequency of headaches is found to be reduced among the men and
women who perform sex frequently. Sex also gives the relief from
the pain in joints because of the increase in the synovial
fluid.
