去年中Norman曾提到過一篇“口服白濁液抗憂鬱”的報導,這篇新聞於GIZMODO刊出後,
能否促進大眾積極進行不安全性行為雖然尚屬未知,但若要說服令一半和你啪啪啪,
在能降低憂鬱、燃燒脂肪或創造宇宙繼起之生命等說法之外,
現在終於又出現了一個好用的新理由─那就是”性行為可以舒緩頭痛”!
從はちま起稿看到的消息,一篇日前刊登於頭痛專門期刊”Cephalalgia”,
由德國明斯特大學的研究者Anke Hambach等人所進行、
以800位偏頭痛患者及200位叢集性頭痛患者為對象的調查研究便發現,
在疼痛時有發生過性行為的患者中,分別有過半的人表示偏頭痛獲得舒緩、
37%的人表示叢集性頭痛獲得了減輕─雖然有三分之一的偏頭痛患者,
以及50%的叢集性頭痛患者認為疼痛反而加劇…..不過,若單只以偏頭痛而言,
大家的30cm將來或許都可望成為別具一格的醫療用具呢! XD

…..Researchers from the University of Munster in Germany have found that
sexual activity was successful in treating migraines in 60 percent sufferers
and in one-third of patients with cluster headaches…..
…..“Our data suggest…that sexual activity can lead to partial or complete relief
of headache in some migraine and a few cluster headache patients,”
wrote the authors of the study, published Feb. 19 in Cephalagia…..
…..“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,” they added…..
…..
…..The researchers looked at 800 patients with migraines and 200 patients with cluster headaches.
Patients were asked to complete a questionnaire about their sexual activity
during their headache episodes and write how sex affected the pain…..
…..About one-third of the patients said they had sex during a migraine or a cluster headache.
Sixty percent of migraine sufferers who had sex said they had some sort of pain relief,
with most of them reporting moderate or complete alleviation of their symptoms.
Some participants — mostly men — admitted to using sex as a way to treat the migraines.
For one-third of the migraine patients who had sex, the pain got worse…..
…..Thirty-seven percent of cluster headache patients said sex helped lessen the pain,
with 90 percent of those patients who had sex saying they experienced moderate
to complete relief of headaches. However, 50 percent of them said sex only made headaches worse…..
…..Study researcher Stefan Evers, a neurologist and headache specialist
at the University of Munster in Germany, told LiveScience that sex releases endorphins,
which are natural painkillers. Other studies have shown that sex can alleviate migraines,
but the studies were done on a smaller scale.Evers suggested that masturbation or any sexual activity
may be able to get rid of headaches in some people…..
…..“Having an orgasm in any way shape or form will help (them),” he said…..
…..
對於這個發現,研究者似乎傾向以性行為分泌腦內啡所造成來解釋,
因此不止兩人啪啪啪,其實自己OGC也是有用的…..
不過在聽說”頭痛”已成為迴避伴侶常用理由的當下,倘若確定另一半不會仔細看論文,
那麼就拿起Cephalalgia、一邊唸著希波克拉底誓詞,
一邊儘管去衝鋒陷陣吧─以治療頭痛之名! XD
