Love & Sex

4 reasons why a regular round of sex in winter is necessary

All champagnes have been popped and the confetti remnants and that Christmas tree should really have long disappeared from your living room. Now comes the time that most people dread. Those few excruciatingly boring winter months until the first signs of spring appear. At LotteLust, we know a natural remedy that eases the pain: crawling under the covers with your loved one. Sex is enjoyable in itself, but it also has various health benefits. Especially in winter.

Seeking warmth with each other

Of course, a blanket with separate sleeves is very comfortable, but nothing beats the warmth of your partner, right? Moreover, research shows that men are more frisky in winter. Take advantage of it! Check out the tips for a steamy winter sex.

Against a (beginning) winter dip

In winter, the sun is often nowhere to be seen. The result? Your vitamin D drops and you feel a gloomy, listless sensation. Fortunately, you can also get your ‘vitamin D’ elsewhere *wink wink*. During a round of horizontal tango, you produce extra endorphins: the substance that makes you feel happy.

Anti-cold

A little cold seems almost inevitable at this time. You can get infected by your surroundings in no time. But sex is good for this too. Research shows that having sex at least three times a week leads to a stronger immune system. Speaking of health; this is how you know if you have a healthy sex life yet.

Sleeping like a baby

Are you tossing and turning in your bed despite the dark days? A quickie solves that so easily. You’ve probably noticed that you fall blissfully asleep after sex. This is due to the surge of serotonin and opioids released during an orgasm. You relax faster and fall asleep quickly.
