After sex, men and women react differently. After experiencing an orgasm, women still have an endless aftertaste, but men have already snored or got up to do something else. However, it is not advisable for men to immediately engage in other things. From a health perspective, there are many things men should not do immediately after having sex. Let's take a look at what happens after sex.
How do men maintain health after having sex?
Can't drink cold drinks right away
After experiencing comfortable sex, couples first need to drink water, but how to drink water after sex is a problem many couples ignore. During sexual intercourse, the blood vessels of the whole body of a couple are in a highly dilated state, and the blood vessels of the gastrointestinal tract are no exception. The couple's sexual intercourse has just ended, but the blood vessels in the gastrointestinal tract have not yet returned to normal, and the gastrointestinal mucosa is still in a state of hyperemia. Drinking a large amount of cold drinks at this time can cause sudden cold stimulation and contraction of the gastrointestinal mucosa, causing gastrointestinal discomfort, and even gastrointestinal cramps causing pain.
Take a break after sex, and the first thing to do is pee.
In normal women, there are many bacteria living around the urethral orifice. During sexual life, due to conflict and compression, bacteria enter the urethra through the urethral orifice and rise along the urethra to the bladder, ureter, and even kidney, causing cystitis and pyelonephritis. In men, there are also many bacteria in the glans of the penis, especially in the foreskin dirt accumulated in the coronal groove, which can enter the urethra during sexual life and cause urinary tract infections. Bacteria from both partners' genitals can also enter each other's urethra and cause infection. Therefore, urination after sexual activity is a simple and effective cleaning method. Urinary washing can remove bacteria and reduce the chance of infection.
Cleaning the lower body after sex is an essential process.
During sexual life, male semen and female vaginal secretions adhere to the external genitalia, especially the female perineum and male scrotum, causing moisture and air tightness. These secretions provide a favorable environment for the survival and reproduction of bacteria. Cleaning the lower body and wiping it dry with a clean towel after sex can prevent external genital infection and reduce the chance of urinary tract infection. When washing the external genitalia, warm water should be used to wash from front to back to prevent the sewage from washing around the anus from flowing back to the external genitalia, thereby contaminating the genitalia.
Don't go to bed right now
Many men snore after sex, which is also human nature. After all, sex is an individual activity, but this practice is not conducive to health. "After sex, it's not that the faster you sleep, the better you recover. On the contrary, falling asleep immediately after an orgasm can cause fatigue to persist until the next day.". Fatigue after sex is mostly due to the temporary relaxation of the reflex function of the brain and spinal cord that controls the discharge of semen after ejaculation. Nerves are excited and tense during ejaculation, and nerves and spinal cord reflex nerves relax after ejaculation. Young people are sensitive and active, recovering quickly, and some people recover quickly. Older people have a sluggish neural response and a relatively long recovery time. They fall asleep immediately after ejaculation, and their fatigue reflex function continues to relax, making it difficult for fatigue to disappear. So after sex, men should not go to bed immediately. They can talk to their lovers or embrace intimate time to please women.
Can't blow right away
Sex consumes a lot of physical energy and can cause sweating. Especially in summer, because the weather is very hot, it is easy to sweat after sex. There are also men who prefer to blow directly into the air conditioner. This is also a mistake. Pathogens are easy to ride on. After sex, the body's ability to regulate body temperature decreases, making it prone to catching colds. In addition, by blowing cold air directly, the sweat gland discharge hole suddenly closes, and sweat accumulation cannot be discharged. Even in extreme heat, it is necessary to avoid blowing cold air into the air conditioner without wearing clothes and cover it with a thin quilt.
Don't forget to drink a glass of warm water to relieve after sex.
Not only are the sexual organs of both sides in a highly congested and excited state during the sexual life process, but almost all tissues and organs of the body participate in this special physiological process from the sexual excitement stage to the orgasm stage. It can be said that a satisfying sexual life is equivalent to a moderate intensity of physical exercise. At this time, the energy consumption of the body significantly increases, and the metabolism of tissues and organs is vigorous. This process consumes a large amount of water. Do not go to bed immediately after sexual activity. Be sure to drink a glass of warm water to supplement the insufficient water in the body. Otherwise, you will feel tired the next day. Especially for middle-aged and elderly people, lack of water in the body at night, and blood concentration can cause diseases. Don't forget to drink warm water after sex.
