Long life is an eternal topic, so many people are thinking of various methods and experiencing it. Some people believe that in order to live a long life, it is necessary to exercise abstinence and have a clear mind and few desires in order to maintain physical health, just like practicing meditation. So is it good to have no sex for a long time?
Can abstinence lead to longevity
If you want to live a long life, you cannot suppress your inner desires. Only by following your true nature can you live a happier life, with both physical and mental pleasure, and a healthier body. If one forcibly suppresses one's desires and their desires are not satisfied, it is easy to have physical and psychological problems. Therefore, in order to live a long life, one should still follow instinct.
Whether abstinence can lead to longevity or not depends on a certain degree. Having regular and appropriate sexual activity is a better way to have sex. But what constitutes regular and appropriate sexual activity is not only related to one's age, but also to one's physical health, which has significant individual differences. However, in daily life, if sexual activity does not affect one's energy and there are no symptoms of discomfort, it indicates that sexual activity is regular and appropriate.
To achieve longevity through abstinence, the key is to be regular and appropriate, and one cannot indulge in sexual activity completely. These two extremes have a significant impact on physical health, which in turn can affect one's lifespan.
What are the effects of long-term lack of sexual activity on the body
1. Affects male sexual ability
Just like home appliances, if left unused, their functionality will deteriorate and even be damaged. The same is true for human sexual organs, especially for male sexual organs. If they do not have sex for a long time, their sexual function will be affected. The smooth muscle of the penis will degenerate, and Sexual dysfunction of impotence and premature ejaculation will appear when they have sex.
2. Easy to cause diseases
If men do not engage in sexual activity for a long time, their sperm cannot be discharged in a timely and effective manner, resulting in a congested and swollen prostate gland. If this situation is maintained for a long time, it is easy to have problems, leading to Prostatitis and other diseases. So men should still engage in sexual activity appropriately and not completely abstain from it, otherwise getting sick will not be worth the loss.
3. Prone to psychological problems
Longevity emphasizes Unity of Heaven and humanity, and let nature take its course. If desire is not satisfied by forced suppression, psychological problems will easily occur over time. If it is a passive choice of abstinence, it is impossible to engage in sexual activity when it is necessary. This can have a significant impact on human rationality and easily lead to the edge of illegality due to unsatisfied desires. In addition, if one actively chooses abstinence, it is a forceful suppression of one's own heart, gradually leading to a sense of negation and psychological problems.
Proper and regular sexual activity can put people in a healthy state. Long periods of inactivity have a harmful impact on the body, and it is still advisable to resume sexual activity.
