Luxury vibrators are great... We know you knew that already! What you might not have known, though, is the extent to which they can physically benefit you, improving everything from hormone balance, to neurotransmitter levels, to cardio health and fighting infections. Today we will discuss the benefits of one of the most pleasurable exercise programs you'll ever embark upon.

Decreased risk of depression

When you have an orgasm, levels of dopamine and epinephrine, two important neurotransmitters, soar in your system. These boost your mood, and help you feel better about life in general.

Decreased risk of cervical infections

When you and your favorite glass dildo are having a 'deep and meaningful', at the climax of this little discussion, your vagina tents, and opens up the cervix. This stretches and pulls the inner mucus, and helps flush out unfriendly bacteria.

Relief from urinary tract infections

This tenting of the vagina also helps decrease the general bacteria count in your urethra, and relieve and prevent urinary tract infections.

Combats insomnia

Dopamine and epinephrine are released during an orgasm; oxytocin and endorphins are released after the climax. These help naturally combat insomnia.

Improves cardio health

Several studies have found a link between having orgasms more regularly, and having increased resistance to cardiovascular problems. The mechanism is unclear, but the link is strong.

Lowers risk of type 2 diabetes

The same studies looked at improved resistance to developing type-2 diabetes when women have a greater number of orgasms. Just to be clear, it doesn't matter whether you play with a vibrator or a partner - you don't have to have the sweaty, full-on, flop-on-the-bed afterwards sort of sex to get the health benefits of orgasm. In other words, your orgasm doesn't have to be a jogging session in disguise... it just has to feel good!

Increases pelvic floor strength

Bet you never knew you were doing one of the strongest pelvic floor lifts of your life while having an orgasm! It's a great distraction to the fact that you are actually helping support your organs and increase your continence in your twilight years.

Relieves stress

It is impossible to worry about your bills when you have your iPod on, and a vibrator in hand, buzzing away! Playing with your adult toys ensures you take a little time for yourself, and also helps relieve stress with that rush of dopamine and epinephrine.

Helps maintain a healthy weight

The relief from stress can have a major impact on your appetite for food, and the increased levels of feel-good chemicals running around in your system mean that you don't need to turn to a packet of Tim Tams to feel good. Stress increases your serum levels of cortisol, which in turn increases abdominal fat. Not ideal for most of us!

Improves gastro-intestinal health

Irritable bowel syndrome, gastric ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease, general nausea, constipation and diarrhea can all be caused by stress. Your vibrator can help!

Hopefully, you never think of your luxury sex toys (https://www.mysecretluxury.com/) such as Lelo vibrators and alone time as a petty time-waster again... it is actually a valuable investment in your overall health!
