Sweating profusely during sexual intercourse is referred to as "catharsis" in traditional Chinese medicine. This condition is caused by excessive sweating during sexual life, chills in limbs, palpitations, shortness of breath, and dryness of the throat, joint soreness, and fatigue throughout the body. This is caused by the leakage of yang qi, which injures yin and yang, and is more common among the physically weak or middle-aged and elderly. In this case, it is necessary to supplement some additional food that can replenish qi and blood, such as longans, lotus seeds, chickens, pigeons, and dates. Drinking in soup can replenish qi and nourish yin, astringent sweat, and consolidate essence.
