Sex life plays a very important role in the life of a couple and is also the lubricant of the couple's relationship. What constitutes a harmonious sex life actually varies from person to person. As long as both spouses feel satisfied, there are no very strict standards. But there is indeed a relatively healthy range for the frequency of sexual life. Too much and too little are actually detrimental to the physical health of both husband and wife. So, how often is the healthiest time for couples to have sex together?

The frequency of sexual life should be comfortable for both parties

Human body functions will gradually decline with age, and sexual function is no exception. Theoretically, the older a person is, the less frequently they have sex.

As for the frequency of sexual life, Western scholars have a simpler calculation method, which is to multiply the tenth digit of age by nine. The tens digit of the result is the time, and the single digit is the more reasonable number of sexual intercourses during this period.

Take a 30-year-old person as an example, 3x9=27, that is, it is more appropriate to have sex 7 times in 20 days. If you are 40 years old, 4x9=36, which means you have sex 6 times in 30 days, and so on.

Of course, the formulas are relatively rigid. Different people will adapt to different frequency of sexual life due to their different physiques, occupations and even recent mental states.

Generally speaking, as long as both husband and wife do not experience physical discomfort such as fatigue the next day after sex and are full of energy, it means that the sex life is moderate. On the other hand, if you feel weak or even dizzy or have a loss of appetite, it may be that you are having sex too frequently.

What are the dangers of having inappropriate sex frequency?

The dangers of having too frequent sexual intercourse: Sexual intercourse will cause a great deal of physical exertion for both spouses. If indulgence is excessive, it will inevitably affect the mental state and lead to a decrease in work efficiency. In addition, excessive frequency of sexual life will also lead to repeated and persistent congestion in sexual life of both men and women, thereby inducing prostatitis in men, gynecological diseases in women and other diseases.

For couples who want to get pregnant, too frequent sexual intercourse can also lead to a decrease in male sperm quality, which is not conducive to conception.

The dangers of low sexual frequency: If a woman does not have sexual intercourse for too long, it may lead to endocrine disorders, causing women to suffer from symptoms such as poor skin and irregular menstruation. For men, abstaining from sex for too long can lead to erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation when having sex again.

Infrequent sexual intercourse is also detrimental to pregnancy preparation, because men who have not ejaculated for a long time can cause sperm circulation and metabolism to be blocked, which will also reduce the chance of pregnancy due to poor sperm motility.
