2. Improve mood
Sex in the morning can also improve a person's mood or mood. This is because by having sex, dopamine or happy hormones are released, so that married couples are happier after having sex in the morning.
"Sex provides an endorphin release, and we all know that endorphins are hormones that make you feel good, which create a feeling of relaxation and prevent anxiety and depression. That is a great added value to start the day," said an obstetrician, Maria Sophocles, M.D, FACOG, NCMP.
3. Burn calories
Keep in mind that having sex in the morning can also be counted as physical activity. Although not the same as exercising, the lovemaking session can help burn calories.
The number of calories burned is around five calories per minute, a number almost the same as walking. Therefore, there is no harm in starting the day by having sex in the morning or morning sex with your partner.
