Is sweating during sex a sign of kidney deficiency?

Many people believe that sex is an activity that consumes physical strength and energy for men, and if a man sweats profusely during sex or after ejaculation, it is a sign of weakness. In fact, this is a misunderstanding.

1. Men’s sweating is related to the type of sex

When people discuss sex life, they mostly talk about the sexual response cycle. People's sexual behavior types are divided according to the type of reactive behavior and individual differences: such as clingy type and agitated type, with orgasm type or without orgasm type. Some people are in an excited and pre-orgasmic plateau state as soon as they get into the mood, and they get sexual pleasure throughout the entire sexual process; while others do not feel much pleasure during sexual intercourse, and only feel excited and euphoric when they reach orgasm. People with the clingy type ejaculate slowly and have long sexual intercourse times, while the opposite is true for the agitated type.

Scientists have linked the biological responses during sex to a person's neurological type. Excitable people tend to be more agitated during sex; inhibited people tend to be more clingy. The intensity of various physiological reactions during sexual life is determined by the response of a person's autonomic nervous system function.

2. Men’s sweating is related to their personal constitution

According to the physiological laws of sexual response, sexual intercourse will inevitably produce emotional excitement, such as increased heartbeat, rapid breathing, muscle contractions, skin flushing, increased blood pressure, etc., and the sweat gland system will also react. However, the intensity of this excitement phenomenon is determined by the above-mentioned nerve types and autonomic nervous function.

Therefore, the strength of the reaction cannot be explained solely by the strength or weakness of the body. A young man with a great physique may sweat during the entire sexual activity because he is an agitated type and his autonomic nervous system functions very flexibly and sensitively. But people with the clinging type rarely sweat or only sweat slightly.

The phenomenon of profuse sweating, except for extremely agitated people, can generally be explained in two ways: one is a physical problem, such as being weak and sick, malnourished, who will sweat profusely with the slightest movement, even if it is not sexual intercourse. This phenomenon fully reflects the disorder of nerve function and the inability to support the balance and coordination of physiological state. The second is psychological problems, which are common in situations of excitement, tension, fear, and worry.

3. Sweating may be a sexual dysfunction

It is particularly worth mentioning that people with sexual dysfunction, such as impotence and premature ejaculation, have uncontrollable anxiety every time they make love, worrying that the penis cannot erect or that they will ejaculate prematurely. Due to excessive mental tension, sexual excitement cannot be concentrated locally, but spreads throughout the body, which inevitably leads to sweating. Just like some people who fail repeatedly in exams, labor, work, or experiments, and sweat profusely in anxiety, they are definitely not physically weak, it is purely the result of psychological tension and stress.
