If you suffer from pounding migraines, sex might be the perfect cure for you according to a German study.
According to the Journal of the International Headache Society, who questioned 800 migraine sufferers and 200 headache sufferers about their struggles; over half of them claimed that after having sex with their partners their pain subsided.
Researchers believe the sex allows endorphins, which are the body’s natural pain killers, to be released into the body which helps to reduce the migraine or headache pain.
They wrote, “Our results show that sexual activity during a migraine attack might relieve or even stop an attack in some cases, and that sexual activity in the presence of headache is not an unusual behavior.”
