What effect does excessive sexual activity have on the heart? Overindulgence has these dangers
Post Date December, 02 2023
For both men and women, sex is more for their own pleasure than for the sake of reproducing the next generation. However, despite this, sexual life is not necessarily more beneficial. Everyone knows that excessive libido is harmful and unhelpful to the human body, but did you know that having too much sex can also have a negative impact on the heart? Let's talk about this issue.
Why is sex related to the heart?
We should know that sex is also a relatively intense exercise, and that many people feel panting during and after sex is one of the symptoms. Therefore, sex can also bring certain tests to the human heart.
First of all, the human body consumes a relatively large amount of energy during sexual activity. Secondly, when people have sex, both men and women experience an increased heart rate, which can indeed trigger a heart attack for people with a bad heart or a history of heart disease.
Can't you have sex with a bad heart?
In fact, this is not the case. For the vast majority of people with mild heart disease, proper sex life not only does not harm the heart, but also is an important part of rehabilitation, which can help patients alleviate mental depression and anxiety.
Of course, the frequency of this sexual life should not be too frequent, otherwise it may exacerbate the condition. Even for people without a history of heart disease, the frequency of sexual activity should not be too dense, which is just like not being able to exercise vigorously for a long time, and is a requirement for protecting the body and heart function.
What are the dangers of overindulgence?
Although the negative effects of excessive sexual activity on the heart are not obvious for the average person, excessive libido can still bring the following hazards:
1. Not conducive to pregnancy: In fact, the more you do, the higher the probability of pregnancy. Excessive frequency of sexual activity can lead to decreased sperm quality in men, which is not conducive to successful pregnancy. Even if you are pregnant, you are more likely to experience situations such as fetal arrest.
2. Inducing gynecological and andrological diseases: Excessive and frequent sexual activity can lead to persistent congestion and friction of the sexual organs. If relevant cleaning work is not done properly, it is easy to induce gynecological diseases for women, and men are also prone to problems such as prostatitis.
3. Reducing sexual satisfaction: Just as if you love eating one dish three times a day, you will always get tired of it. Having sex too frequently over time can reduce your interest and satisfaction in sex, and if the situation continues to worsen, it can also lead to sexual apathy.
4. Leading to mental distress: Sexual activity consumes a large amount of physical energy. If you have frequent sexual activity, it will undoubtedly affect your physical and even mental health, and can lead to decreased memory and inability to concentrate.
