According to VOI.id, the professor cites the results of an analysis of sexual activity and mental health data from over 15,000 people. The results showed that participants who had sex once or twice a week scored the best on indicators of mental health. For those who had sex less frequently or irregularly, the relationship to mental health was less clear.
The professor points out that sexual activity generally improves quality of life and increases self-satisfaction, which over time is reflected in improved mental health. However, the precise biological or psychological mechanism behind this effect remains unclear.
He emphasizes that the results show a statistical correlation and not a direct causal relationship, so determining how intimate relationships affect mental health will be the focus of further research and studies.
