Depression is a common mental disorder characterized by a depressed mood, loss of interest or pleasure, feelings of guilt or low self-worth, disturbed sleep or appetite, low energy, and poor concentration.
Medical Director of Pinnacle Medical Services and a psychiatrist, Dr. Maymunah Kadiri, has advised married women to have regular sex with their spouses to prevent depression and increase happiness. She shared her insights in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.
According to Dr. Kadiri, sex not only nourishes a woman’s body but also benefits her mental health. “As women, it is essential to make our spouses our best friends if we want to be mentally healthy,” she said. “Studies have shown that women who have more active sex and are in long-term relationships are less likely to be depressed than those who go without sex.”
Dr. Kadiri emphasized the importance of regular, active sex for overall well-being and quality of life. She pointed out that a low sexual drive, which can lead to depression, should be addressed. “Frequent active sex can significantly enhance a woman’s sense of well-being,” she noted.
Sex is not just for procreation, Dr. Kadiri explained, but also creates bonding, companionship, and sound sleep. She urged women dealing with depression to frequently engage in sex to boost their self-esteem and mental health. Additionally, she mentioned that sex can help with weight loss and better sleep due to the release of endorphins, the brain’s happy hormones.
Dr. Kadiri also highlighted that sex is particularly beneficial for women, helping to alleviate stress and improve overall happiness. She advised that sex should be considered a holy act within marriage, and couples should be open about their sexual needs to avoid issues like divorce. “Many problems in marriages stem from a lack of communication about sex,” she stated.
She suggested that married women should feel comfortable and confident with their bodies in front of their partners. “Marriage is about being free with your body. A woman should feel confident to parade naked and tempt her husband,” she said.
Dr. Kadiri criticized couples for neglecting their sexual relationship due to busy schedules and emphasized the importance of prioritizing sex for a healthy marriage. “God created sex for both procreation and pleasure,” she added. “You can enjoy sex at any time, not just at night. A satisfied partner glows and becomes more energetic.”
In conclusion, Dr. Kadiri urged couples to make time for sex, regardless of age, and to maintain a healthy and loving sexual relationship. “Let LOVE & SEX fill your marriage,” she said. She encouraged readers to share this message with married friends and family, potentially saving marriages from divorce.
