TUESDAY, Aug. 10 (HealthDay News) — In certain situations, competing for a mate may shorten a man’s life.

As relationships go, booty calls don’t get the most respect, but at least they’re getting researched.

By Stephanie Pappas

For one out of four women, orgasm during sex is an elusive goal. According to a new report, medical science isn’t doing enough to ensure these women find satisfaction between the sheets.

The paper, published online ahead of print in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, reviews 101 studies on female orgasm disorder, a condition in which women have difficulty reaching climax or can’t orgasm at all. Despite the fact that inability to orgasm is the second most common female sexual complaint after lack of desire, and orgasm is one of the top 50 reasons we have sex, treatments for the disorder are inadequate, the authors conclude.

A new study published in the British Medical Journal confirms that sexual health relates directly to physical health. The study surveyed 12000 people over a year-long period and found some interesting parallels between obesity and sexual health.
