Did
you ever know that your age has something to do with how often you should have
sex? Well, a recent study has revealed how often you should be having sex
according to how old you are.
Experts at the Kinsey
Institute of Sex, Reproduction and Gender have identified the decades
of our lives where we get the most action and the benefits of getting frisky
between the sheets.
According to the Sun UK, the research showed that millennials
people who reached young adulthood around the year 2000 have the most sex
out of all of us.
Apparently, 18 to 29-year-olds ought
to make love approximately 112 times a year – roughly twice a
week.
In a
separate study, researchers at Wilkes University in Pennsylvania found
that university students who had intercourse once or twice a week had
higher levels of antibodies compared to those who had sex less often.
By comparison, 30 to 39-year-olds
have sex on average 86 times a year – around 1.6 times per week.
This
is perhaps unsurprising given it’s the age many people choose to start a family
– there’s nothing like a crying baby to kill the mood.
Next up it’s the frisky 40s, where
people aged between 40 and 49 have sex an average of 69 times a year.
The study also revealed 45 per cent of
married couples have intercourse several times a month, 34 per cent have it two
to three times a week and 13 per cent have it just a few times per year.
Another
study conducted by website Your Tango
surveyed married couples to discover the ‘minimum, average and ideal’ number of
sexual activities per month.
The
results showed the minimum was deemed to be once a month, the average once a
week and the ideal three to five times per week.
Among
the numerous benefits of having sex is that it helps lower blood pressure,
eases stress and anxiety and enhances sleep.
