Patient's question:
We have sex every day, how often is considered healthier in general? Thank you!!Doctor's answer:
Hello: Pay attention to the frequency and rest. Generally, anything above three minutes is considered normal. The question of how many times sexual activity is appropriate for different ages is quite complex and cannot be mechanically prescribed. The general principle is that the second day after sexual activity should not result in obvious fatigue, mental lethargy, lower back pain, or weakness, and it should not affect work or study.

One perfect sexual activity is more satisfying than two imperfect ones.The objective standard for measuring whether the frequency of sexual activity is appropriate is whether one feels energetic and happy the next morning. If the following symptoms appear within the second or several days after sexual activity, and no other causes can be found, it can be considered excessive, and one should moderate the frequency and appropriately extend the interval between sexual activities.
