A new research according to a study conducted by Psychology Professor Gordon Gallup, women that don't use a condom while during sexual intercourse showed less sign of depression. It tends that semen may affect the mood of a woman when it's absorbed by her vagina.
This research used a survey named Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), which is used in order to know the differences individuals have in their symptoms of depression.
About 300 women participated in the study. They were told to answer questionnaires regarding the various aspects of their own sexual behavior. The questions included the frequency of their intercourse, whether they used condoms or when was the last time they had sex.
Gallup claims that the women, who didn't use condoms on their intercourse had lower scores on the BDI. Researchers also tried to include the use of birth control pills, how often the women had sexual intercourse, whether they were in a relationship or not and found out that not using condoms really affected the signs of depression significantly.
This topic has needed more research, but it is confirmed that semen really affects the mood of the women and find out a connection between signs of depression and the usage of condoms in female college students who are sexually active.
