      Some people think that the longer each sexual life lasts, the more sexual satisfaction can be obtained. This view is not scientific. Sexual physiological research shows that if a sexual life lasts for a long time, it is detrimental to the health of both parties.

      First, when having sex, not only the sexual organs of both men and women are in a state of high congestion, but also from the sexual excitement period to the climax period, many tissues and organs of the human body are involved in this special physiological process. For example, the muscle tension of the whole body is significantly enhanced, the heartbeat is accelerated, the myocardial contraction is strengthened, the blood pressure is increased, the breathing is deepened and accelerated, and the whole body skin Blood vessels dilate, perspiration increases, etc., so the body's energy consumption increases significantly and metabolism increases. If the sexual life lasts for a long time, the body's energy consumption will exceed the body's and make people feel tired, and even cause both parties to suffer from mental fatigue, muscle soreness, general weakness and other discomforts, which will inevitably affect the work and labor of the next day.

      Second, during sexual intercourse, the sexual organs of both men and women are in close contact and move under a highly congested state. If the time is too long, it is easy to cause various diseaseclinical Prove that if sex lasts too long, female It is more likely to cause urinary infections, menstrual disorders, etc. male easy to trigger prostatitis wait.
