The Benefits of Abstinence in Women

I will do a benefits for men but that will take a little more research and I wanted to post on here so that you don't get bored. Some of the benefits in abstaining from sex:

     STD's - As I like to put it the gift that keeps on giving. Women who keep from getting STD's also avoid the long term side effects. Pelvic Inflammatory disease or PIDS is the main one. In PIDS the organisms of the STD cause widespread, serious infection of the pelvic organs and may get into a woman's bloodstream. It can cause serious illness or even death. Scarring of the fallopian tubes may not be noticed until years later, when infertility or ectopic pregnancy (an egg planted outside the uterus, usually inside the fallopian tubes) occur. Ectopic pregnancy itself can cause death and diminish or destroy the remaining childbearing potential.

Cervical cancer is likely triggered by human papilloma virus (HPV). A woman is exposed to HPV through sex. Even though she may not get an STD, there is still a high correlation between cervical cancer (HPV) and having intercourse. Though virgins rarely get HPV, there is still a high rate of it in women who have had multiple sex partners. There is a shot for this. I have had it though I never had sex until I was married. It does not feel good at all, in fact it hurts! However, the benefits of 'Gardisil' out weigh the pain of the 5 second shot.

     Urinary and Genital Infections - Absinent women have lower rates of vaginitis, a vaginal infection that is not sexually transmitted, and urinary tract infections or UTI's. These infections can be cause by bacteria from the skin being dragged into the vagina or to the opening of the urinary tract unintentionally during intercourse or foreplay. The penis has bacteria like all skin, it is a frequent occurrence for the man's penis to dangle between the womens legs during foreplay, where it can pick up bacteria from around the women's anus. These bacteria can cause yeast infections in the vagina and can infect the bladder as well.

     Social and Psychological Benefits - Young girls that abstain form sex have a higher rate of academic achievement. Women of all ages experience less depression and emotional upset due to relationship problems. Abstinent women also experience less domestic abuse and injuries.

     Now obviously most women won't remain abstinent forever, however those that remain abstinent in their teens and early adult years will avoid most STD's and relationship related psych problems, as they are higher-risk years. I am not saying that having sex is bad for your health, in fact sex is normal and has medical benefits in and of itself, however having sex at a younger age will increase your risks. My advice as you may have guessed is wait until you are married. That way it is special for you and your husband and you get to share a magical night together. Men are next....
