Is that really so? Does it has to do something with the change in hormones??

Interesting Link...
It will only make you fat if you are eating a bag of Oreos during the process.

Not true. Sex is physical exercise that burns calories. If anything, sex is good for various muscles, especially your heart. That would be like saying walking daily for 30-60 minutes makes you fat...
Hormones alone cannot make you fat by themselves- they would have to trigger appetite and you would have to eat more than you burn to gain weight. Studies are currently underway and are showing that stress and sleep deprivation may alter hormones that control apetite. I have never heard about sex making anyone fat, or any studies relating to that idea.
There ARE studies trying to relate weight gain to taking oral contraceptives... But again, it has to do with changes in appetite and water retention prior to menstruation.

Sex does not make you fat. It burns calories. As for as hormones if you are on birth control pills or shots they can make you gain a few pounds.

Umm no. Where in the world did you hear that? Sex is exercise and it makes your heart beat faster which is good cardio exercise. Sex doesn't make you fat - but it makes you happy because it releases the happy hormone in your body and relaxes you.

No, it's the bananas and peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches you constantly eat to keep your strength up between rounds that makes you fat. It's all the butterscotch topping that gets licked off that makes you fat. It's all the greasy bacon that you-wait, that's off topic.

Sex everyday would do exactly the opposite if anything.

No, on the contrary. Not having sex makes you fat. I firmly believe that if you're not filling one hole, you're filling the other.

Nope, it burns calories and makes you fitter and more flexible. Sex is a great thing.
