Sexual health: Seventeen "don'ts" in "sex"

A healthy and harmonious sex life is beneficial to enhancing the relationship between husband and wife, while unbridled indulgence in sexual life that violates the science of sex life is harmful to the health of both men and women. In order to maintain sexual health, married men and women are reminded to pay attention to the following taboos during sexual intercourse.

1. Don’t have sex when you are sick

People who are suffering from certain serious organic diseases and have been advised by doctors not to have sexual intercourse should not force themselves to have sexual intercourse; people with tuberculosis, which is contagious, should also avoid sexual intercourse; especially those with certain sexually transmitted diseases should not have sexual intercourse. Having sex while sick not only harms yourself but can also transmit the disease to your loved one, so it should be avoided.

2. Don’t have sex while tired

Sexual life consumes a certain amount of physical strength and energy. When you are mentally or physically exhausted, you often cannot reach climax and the effect is not satisfactory to both parties. Especially having sex immediately after being tired can harm your health.

3. Don’t do it reluctantly when you are unhappy

Some couples force themselves to have sex when one of them is in a bad mood. Not only does this fail to achieve a harmonious sex life, but it also makes the one in a bad mood feel disgusted. If it happens repeatedly, it will lead to sexual apathy in women or impotence in men.

4. Do not have sex during menstruation

During a woman's menstrual period, the cervix is ​​open, and sexual intercourse at this time is very susceptible to infection, leading to inflammation of the uterus or appendages.

5. Don’t have sex after drinking

Some people are accustomed to having sex after drinking, and some even believe that having sex after drinking can "improve the quality." In fact, drinking alcohol, especially drinking a lot of strong liquor, can cause the man's penis to have weak erections or premature ejaculation, which can hinder the harmony of sexual life; and conception after drinking can endanger the fetus.

6. Don’t be unhygienic

Having sex in a dirty and messy environment will affect the mental state of both men and women and interfere with the success of sexual life; if the sexual organs are unhygienic, it will also pose a threat to the health of the other party, bringing bacteria and other pathogens into the other party's body and damaging the other party's health. On the contrary, a clean and pleasant environment and washing the lower body before sexual intercourse are not only beneficial to the health of both parties, but also contribute to a harmonious and happy sex life.

7. Don’t be obsessed with the idea of ​​male superiority and female inferiority

In sexual life, if the man does whatever he wants and does not listen to or respect the woman's self-esteem, it will not only destroy the relationship between the couple, but also make the woman gradually feel disgusted, eventually leading to sexual frigidity, and then causing the breakdown of the relationship between the couple.

8. Don’t rush into things without adequate preparation

Some people do not understand the special physiological points of women and rush into sexual intercourse without making adequate preparations, or because of time constraints, they rush into it and end it hastily. These practices cannot make women reach orgasm. Not only will they not generate interest in sex, but they will bring pain, which is the main reason for women's sexual apathy.

9. Don’t have sex when you are full or hungry

Because a full stomach makes the gastrointestinal tract full and congested, the blood supply to the brain and other organs of the body is relatively insufficient, so it is not advisable to have sex right after a meal; on the contrary, when one is hungry, one's physical strength decreases and one's energy is not abundant, and it is often difficult to achieve satisfactory results when having sex at this time.

10. Don’t be overly nervous or shy

More common in newlyweds. Due to extreme mental tension or excessive shyness, it is easy to cause premature ejaculation in men or pain during sexual intercourse in women, affecting sexual pleasure. Try to keep a relaxed and happy mood. Women don't need to feel shy about it. They should be calm and generous and actively cooperate with their husbands to make their sex life harmonious, satisfying and happy.

11. Don’t have sex after bathing

Having sex immediately after bathing will disrupt the blood circulation and affect your health.

12. Do not have sex after giving birth

If you have sexual intercourse too early after giving birth, it can easily cause poor uterine involution and uterine bleeding.

13. It is not advisable to have sex within 20 minutes after taking a hot bath

In a hot water bath, the skin of the whole body immediately becomes widely congested. If you have sex while taking a shower, or have sex immediately after taking a shower, your body will need to mobilize a large amount of blood to flow to your sexual organs. For example, in men, the amount of blood required in the corpus cavernosum is 20-25 times more than normal. At this time, a large amount of blood accumulates in the skin, causing a conflict in blood distribution and resulting in a lack of ability to cope with the disease.

14. Don’t have sex when you’re in a bad mood

When a couple has sex, both parties need to be in a good mood and have fun, so as to arouse the passionate feelings of the partner, so that they can truly enjoy the joy of sex. However, if one of the partners is in a bad mood, such as feeling sad, worried or angry, it is not advisable to force sex. Especially when the woman refuses to make love, and the man gets furious, or even uses violence to force his wife to have sex, not only is there no fun at all, but it is also likely to cause the wife to become sexually frigid or depressed.

15. Sexual life should not be too long

When a couple has sex, from the beginning to the end of sexual excitement, under normal circumstances, it lasts about 5-15 minutes. Some people think that the longer each sexual intercourse lasts, the more sexual satisfaction they can get. This view is not scientific. Sexual physiology research shows that a long sexual intercourse is not good for the health of both parties.

During sexual intercourse, the sexual organs of both men and women are in close contact and activity in a highly congested state. If the time is too long, it is easy to cause various diseases. Clinically, it has been proven that if sexual intercourse lasts too long, women are more likely to develop urinary tract infections, menstrual disorders, etc., and men are more likely to develop prostatitis, etc.

16. Young people should especially avoid excessive sexual activity

Young people always rely on their good health and youthful strength to become overly obsessed with sex life. With such frequent sexual intercourse, the sexual system is in an overloaded state for a long time, causing the sexual system to be overloaded, the sexual organs to be congested for a long time, and there is not enough rest and recovery time. If this continues for a long time, the overwhelmed sexual system will become dysfunctional, its functions will be inhibited and shut down, leading to the occurrence of dysfunction.

17. Sex life should not be too "clean"

Before some couples have sex, the wife not only asks the husband to wash herself repeatedly, but also jumps out of bed to take a shower immediately afterwards. Some people call it "sexual cleanliness". From the perspective of sexual medicine, "sexual cleanliness" is an abnormal sexual behavior caused by an abnormality and is a sexual psychological disorder.

Severe sexual mysophobia will affect the quality of sex life and may also lead to a breakdown in the relationship between couples. Even if some people can tolerate and accommodate, they will eventually develop psychological depression. At the same time, female mysophobes who get up immediately to wash after sex will cause the sperm to lose the opportunity to combine with the egg, thus leading to infertility and may also cause inflammation of the female reproductive organs.
