What does intercourse have to do with a woman's orgasm?

Female orgasm comes from the clitoris.

But you are not a female to be able to know this.

PS. Pornos are fake, eh?

Sydney - The more frequent the sex, the better the quality of the
sperm, and the greater the chance of conception, an Australian
fertility expert believes.

Sydney in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) clinician and reproductive
medicine specialist David Greening said his research showed that
frequent ejaculation improved sperm quality.

His findings defy the accepted wisdom that couples undergoing IVF
treatment should abstain from sex for three days before providing
sperm.

"There's no doubt that there's increased DNA damage to sperm with
abstinence, and the quicker you get the sperm out, the less damage
there is," Dr Greening said.

"I would say the idea that abstinence improves your sperm count is
probably completely wrong, and that before and around the time of
fertility couples trying to conceive should be having as much sex as
they can."

Greening and colleagues asked 42 men to ejaculate every day for seven
days, then compared the quality of their sperm with samples taken at
the beginning of the trial.

The level of damage to DNA was reduced by half in all but five of the
men, with no impact on the sperm count. - Sapa-dpa

Medicine conference in Philadephia



HORMONE replacement therapy significantly increases the life
expectancy of older women, but only if they begin taking the drugs
soon after the onset of the menopause, a major review of the evidence
has found.
A new analysis of 30 trials involving a total of 26,708 women has
revealed that the benefits of the treatment substantially outweigh the
risks, so long as it is started before a woman reaches the age of 60.

In women who started HRT at 56, the risk of death from all causes was
cut by 39 per cent, the research found. However, there was no change
in the mortality rate of women who started HRT at 66. The cut-off
appears to lie at about the age
