As summer enters, everyone is dressing cooler and cooler: men are showing off their sexy muscles, and women are wearing thin skirts. These strong visual impacts can stimulate the passion between couples. However, Professor Li Haisong, director of the Andrology Department of Dongzhimen Hospital Affiliated to Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, pointed out that when summer comes, couples should exercise restraint during sex, especially middle-aged and elderly people, and they should pay attention to three aspects.

First of all, summer is hot and humid, which will affect people's physique. This is what people often call "bitter summer". At this time, people are prone to symptoms of neurasthenia such as fatigue, loss of appetite, abdominal distension, palpitations, sweating, insomnia, dreaminess, etc., which will reduce physical strength.

Secondly, the summer is hot and the body secretes a lot of sweat. In addition, sexual desire makes people excited. Many people will find themselves sweating profusely before having sex. Sweating too much will damage yin and consume qi. During intercourse at this time, middle-aged, elderly and weak people are prone to collapse. For those who are emotionally stressed or physically weak, they should also be wary of excessive sweating after sex, as this may be a sign of disease.

Finally, some people tend to adjust the air conditioner temperature very low in order to enjoy sex in a cool environment. This seemingly best-of-both-worlds approach is actually unwise. Because after a couple achieves orgasm, their pores will open wide and "gasp". If cold air invades at this time, the pores will "hold up the release sign", causing the cold air to invade. People with low resistance will suffer from cold symptoms such as nasal congestion, sneezing, runny nose, and headache. Partial cold exposure to the human body can cause vasoconstriction, muscle soreness, soft tissue damage, etc.

Since ancient times, treatises on health preservation have made it clear that during summer sex one should pay attention to the "reverse effects of hyperactivity and excitement", which means that in summer it is easier for people to have high desires, but if one does not pay attention to moderation, the metabolism will speed up. The body becomes worse and worse, and the physical energy is overdrawn, which affects the vitality and causes other diseases.

In this regard, Li Haisong pointed out that in order to enjoy the life of a couple without affecting your health, you should pay attention to the following four points during summer sex:

Eat more light food and properly supplement high-quality protein, such as fish, seafood, etc. You can also add some spicy food appropriately, such as people often say "eat radish in winter and ginger in summer." Eating ginger appropriately can not only warm the stomach and dispel cold, but also nourish yang.

When the weather is hot, the human body will lose a lot of water and salt. You should drink some salty soup in time to replenish the lost electrolytes. It is best not to have sex when you sweat too much. After sex, do not take a cold shower or drink cold drinks immediately. You should rest in bed for a while and then get up and take a warm shower.

When having sex, do not blow the air conditioner or fan on the human body to avoid air conditioning disease.

Appropriately reduce the frequency of sexual intercourse, and do not force it to avoid other discomforts caused by summer sexual intercourse.
