The ancients paid great attention to keeping healthy during intercourse. Traditional Chinese medicine experts pointed out that the following three "taboos" and three "advocates" need to be followed in keeping in good health during intercourse.

Hot health during sexual intercourse: do three "taboos" and three "advocates"

1. Avoid early sexual desire and advocate late marriage and late sexual desire. "Shou Shi Baoyuan" states: "If a man breaks Yang too early, his essence will be damaged; if a woman breaks Yin too early, her blood will be damaged." The Qing Dynasty's "Wu Yao Yuan Quan" warned: "Having intercourse too early will cause death. Tianyuan is the cause of death." "Zhou Li?" Local official? "Media Dynasty" stipulates: "Every man and woman who has become famous or above will have their name recorded in the name of the year, month and day, and the man will be married when he is thirty and the woman will be married when she is twenty."

2. Avoid indulgence in sexual desire and advocate timely handover. At the same time, we also oppose abstinence from sexual desire. Meicheng of the Western Han Dynasty pointed out in "Qifa": "... Indulging in the seclusion of the Qufang is like eating poison and playing with the claws and claws of ferocious beasts." "Fangzhong Buyi" also pointed out the harm of indulgence: "Nian People who are tall have weak blood and energy... and cannot indulge their wills." If "the fire is once extinguished, the oil will be added once, but if you indulge in lust without restraint, the fire will further remove the oil." Yuan? "Sanyuan Dandi Counselor's Book" proposes that it is of reference value to use age-based purgation for abstinence: "Su Nu said: People in their twenties usually have a bowel movement every four days; those in their thirties, have a bowel movement every eight days; and those in their forties have a bowel movement. , once every 16 days, once every 20 days for those who are fifty, once every 20 days for those who are sixty, if they are strong, they should have a discharge once a month."

While emphasizing "avoidance of sexual desire", the ancients also opposed abstinence from sexual desire. Ge Hong, a medical scientist in the Jin Dynasty, once pointed out: "People cannot be separated from each other by yin and yang, otherwise sitting will cause diseases." "It is strong and depressed and closed, which is difficult to hold and easy to lose, causing it to leak semen and turbid urine, leading to the disease of ghost intercourse (dream emission), and the loss of one is worth a hundred." ("Benefits from the House")

3. Avoid lust and encourage "men sing and women follow." "He Zhi Pian" quotes "Dong Xuanzi" as saying: "The men sing and the women harmonize, and the superiors follow and the inferiors follow. This is the common sense of things. If the men sway but the women do not respond, and the women move but the men do not follow, it is not straight (only) damage. It is harmful to men as well as to women.” "Xuannv Jing" says: "...Yin and Yang are in touch with each other and respond to each other. Therefore, if Yang does not have Yin, it will not be happy, and if Yin does not have Yang, it will not rise. Men want to pick up but women are not happy, women want to pick up but men don't. The two hearts are not in harmony, the essence is not sensitive, the body is violent, and the sexual pleasure is not given. The man desires the woman, and the woman desires the man. They both have a pleasing heart, so the woman will feel excited and the man will have a strong penis." Indeed, when men and women are not aware of each other, how can they achieve "both pleasure" and be healthy physically and mentally if they have violent sexual intercourse?

In addition, Sun Simiao, a famous doctor in the Tang Dynasty, comprehensively put forward the eight indispensables for "integration of yin and yang": "New baths, fatigue from long journeys, fullness of food, drunkenness, great joy, great sadness, men and women with unyielding febrile diseases (healed), women with menstrual blood (menstruation) ) Newly born ones cannot combine yin and yang." Analyzed from the perspective of modern medicine, these eight "don'ts" still have certain scientific principles and should be learned from.
