Bright lights can work wonders for sexual satisfaction in men: study

The lights hit the back of the eye and pass messages to brain centres controlling appetite and sex drive.

Bright lights can pump life into any atmosphere and it has been associated with joy and celebrations for ages across cultures. Now it has also been found that there is a bright shining light at the end of the tunnel for men struggling with their sex life.

A study has revealed that being exposed to bright lights can actually work wonders for increasing sexual pleasure in men who are suffering from a lack of interest in sex among other disorders.

The study involved two groups of men with one being treated with a light box and the other with comparatively dim lighting. Researchers tested their sexual satisfaction after subjecting them to light for two weeks and found that sexual pleasure tripled in men exposed to a bright light box.

The light box contains bright fluorescent tubes which are 10 times the intensity of household lights and are used to simulate exposure to sunlight. When a person looks inside the box, messages are passed when light meets the back of the eye.

These messages are passed to parts of the brain affecting sleep, appetite, mood and sex drive. This treatment can act as a substitute to testosterone injections, antidepressants and medications, if it keeps on displaying good results.
