Welcome!
Hello, Moe.abuameer, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:56, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

Sexual abstinence
Hi, here are the notes I promised, explaining why the edits were reverted:


 * You used studies as a form of sourcing. Studies should generally be avoided unless they're accompanied with a secondary source that reviews the study or comments upon the specific claim that is being stated. The reason for this is that studies are primary sources for any of the claims and research conducted by their authors. The publishers don't provide any commentary or in-depth verification, as they only check to ensure that the study doesn't have any glaring errors that would invalidate it immediately. Study findings also tend to be only true for the specific people or subjects that were studied. For example, a person in one area may respond differently than one in an area located on the other side of the country. Socioeconomic factors (be they for the person or a family member) also play a large role, among other things that can impact a response. As such, it's definitely important to find a secondary source, as they can provide this context, verification, and commentary. Aside from that, there's also the issue of why a specific study should be highlighted over another. For example, someone could ask why one study was chosen as opposed to something that studied a similar topic or had different results.
 * This is even more important when it comes to things that would fall within the realm of health and medicine. I would definitely read over the guidelines at the medicine and health reliable sources page for more information on this.


 * There was an issue as far as the header goes, so that was an issue.


 * In one section you didn't have any sourcing, which posed an issue with verification - especially as it made major claims about sexual intercourse and its benefits. This is something that could be debated and challenged, so it's important to source things like this with the best, strongest possible sourcing.


 * Avoid using words like "you", "us", and so on. This poses an issue with style, as Wikipedia should be written in the third person, and also comes across as being written by a specific person. Using wording like this also presumes something of the reader as well. You can read more about this here.


 * The content you added is focused on the benefits of sexual intercourse as opposed to sexual abstinence - a section like this should focus on the benefits of sexual abstinence.

, do you have anything else to add to this that I missed that needs to be mentioned? Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:09, 2 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Yes, Shalor. Thanks. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 23:45, 3 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Moe.abuameer and Shalor, actually, it does make sense to briefly mention the benefits of sexual intercourse or sexual activity before mentioning why sexual abstinence may not be beneficial. But, as noted, you need to use better sources, Moe.abuameer. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 14:59, 5 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Also, Moe.abuameer, and especially given the issues with your edits so far, it would be best to post a link to your updated sandbox on the article's talk page for review before adding the material. That way, experienced Wikipedians such as myself can tell you what is wrong with your draft and what needs fixing if the material is to be added. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 15:05, 5 December 2019 (UTC)


 * I think that would be a good idea. Also, Moe.abuameer, keep in mind that you're not going to be graded on whether or not the material remains in the article - the instructor will be grading you on your effort, not if the content was kept or removed.

This article is about Sex Abstinence effects on the human body. This research shows the Psychological sex effect on the human body. Sex is known to be this biological activity that produce some events like the Sperms release and the Orgasm occurrence. However, there's a huge gap about the Pros and Cons of the sex and the Psychological effect on human life and behavior if sex was stopped from the regular basis life.

Physical health Status

Sexual intercourse has multiple positives psychological effects, such as fixing the psychological status and release and decrease the stress. However, leaving or stopping sex can lead to some major Psychological and Biological changes for the human body, such as weakness in the Immune system, and Cardiovascular diseases.

Immune system

Regular sex improves the human body immune system. Also, it prepares the body to fight off illness by releasing Endorphins. On the other hand, having less sex, or stop having it will result in more illnesses due to the gap in the support of the Immune system. Health Line reported that saliva samples of college students who had regular sex were found to higher concentration of certain antibodies called immunoglobulin A, which fight the common cold.

Vaginal health

After leaving sex for a while, it will be painful and harder process, especially for the females, to adapt the intercourse activity again. The Sexual arousal will be taking longer time for the female body to become aroused and produce the proper amount of lubrication, in order to make the sexual intercourse easy and comfortable. According to the North American Menopause Society, regular sex is beneficial for vaginal health after menopause. In fact, as humans get older, without the regular flow of sex, the walls of the vagina will thin out, which can lead to painful sex once getting back into the sack. Moreover, less sex leads to less physical stimulation, which produces lubrication. Vaginal estrogen creams may help slow or reverse this process.

Cardiovascular health

Not having sex on the regular basis puts the body on a higher risk to develop cardiovascular diseases. Think about sex as an exercise, sexual intercourse keep the estrogen and progesterone levels in balance, which lower the risk of heart disease. Reporting in the American Journal of Cardiology, researchers say they've found that males with a low frequency of sexual activity will face a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Psychological and Brain Health Effect

Sex is directly related to the human psychological status. Journal of Clinical Psychology stated that Sex has a direct influence on the behavior, mood and happiness status. Sex is associated between sexual well-being and life satisfaction in women and Men. However, quitting the sex will create an issue with the brain and start the development of MDD on the long term. There are three parts of the brain appear to influence the development of an MDD: the Hippocampus, Amygdala, and Prefrontal cortex.

The Hippocampus is responsible for storing memories and regulates cortisol hormone production. The body releases hormone during stress and depression. Problems occur when a large amounts of cortisol is sent to the brain due to a stressful or a chemical disorder in the body. Normally, brain cells (neurons) Should produce, throughout an adult life, in a part of the Hippocampus called the dentate gyrus. In the case of the people having MDD, the long-term exposure to the increasing in the cortisol levels, will slow the production of new neurons cells and cause them to shrink, which will eventually lead to memory problems.

Stress, anxiety levels and Sex

During the intercourse, the body releases the endorphins and Oxycontin hormones. These neuro - chemicals help in managing the effects of the anxiety or stress levels. In fact, Oxycontin hormone is the hormone responsible for sleeping, and any change in the amounts of this hormones, due to the Sexual abstinence, the body will release these hormones less often, which leads to more difficult to cope with stress and cause the body to start facing sleeping disorders and high anxiety rates.
