With the openness of sexual thoughts, people's attitudes towards sex have become less reserved. Sexual activity is a normal physiological need, and only by maintaining a harmonious sexual life can a happy marriage be based. In particular, regular sexual activity brings multiple benefits to women.
How often is sexual activity beneficial and harmless for women?
In fact, there is no unified standard for the frequency of sexual activity, as it is influenced by various factors such as mental state, physical health, and age. For women aged 20 to 30, who are generally more energetic, it is recommended to have sexual activity around three times a week. Women aged 30 to 40 experience a gradual decline in physical condition and insufficient estrogen secretion, so it’s advisable to limit it to about twice a week. For those over 50, twice a month is sufficient.
What benefits does a harmonious sexual life bring to women?
1. Improves Sleep
During sexual activity, women can fully engage, and their muscles become excited and tense. Afterward, the muscles relax, and the nerves calm down, improving sleep quality. Additionally, it stimulates estrogen secretion, which maintains the circulatory system in a normal state, enhances ovarian physiological functions, keeps the menstrual cycle regular, delays the onset of menopause, and increases vaginal secretions, preventing dryness of the vaginal mucosa.
2. Reduces Menstrual Discomfort
A week before menstruation, the pelvic area has increased blood flow, which can lead to abdominal cramps and bloating. During sexual activity, the muscles continuously contract, speeding up blood flow out of the pelvic region, improving overall blood circulation, reducing pelvic pressure, and alleviating abdominal discomfort. Moreover, sexual activity causes the body to release polyphenolic substances, which have a pain-relieving effect. Male semen contains a substance called seminal plasmin, which has antibacterial properties and can kill bacteria such as staphylococcus and pneumococcus, preventing vaginal infections and reducing the risk of gynecological inflammations like vaginitis and salpingitis.
3. Enhances Disease Resistance
Harmonious and regular sexual activity stimulates the secretion of adrenaline, relaxes muscles, maintains the immune system in good condition, and enhances resistance and immunity. During sexual activity, the entire muscle group and limb joints are in motion, improving cardiovascular function, accelerating metabolism, and reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Reminder
Avoid sexual activity when extremely fatigued to prevent physical exhaustion and worsening weakness. Additionally, women should refrain from sexual activity during menstruation to avoid retrograde menstrual flow, which could cause gynecological inflammation. Control the frequency of sexual activity, and urinate promptly afterward to flush the urethra and prevent urinary tract infections.
