Is abstinence harmful to women's health?

Modern young people are relatively open to sex, and sex has become a part of modern people. However, many people choose to abstain from sex for some reasons, or even have no sex for a long time. So what are the disadvantages of long-term abstinence for women? Is it true that long-term abstinence can cause sexual impotence?

The harm of long-term abstinence for women:

1. Decreased sexual function: For women, if they remain virgins for a long time, the moisture time of the vagina will increase. Generally speaking, the vaginal wall of a normal woman will become moist within a few seconds after a certain degree of sexual stimulation, but it will become drier if there is no sexual life for a long time, and the reproductive organs will be somewhat reduced. The same is true for men. If they do not have sex for a long time, it may cause erectile dysfunction.

2. Low self-cleaning ability makes you prone to vaginitis: Due to the special location of the vagina and its structural type, there are a lot of pathogens in the female vagina. However, the vagina has a certain self-cleaning ability. But if you don't have sex for a long time, the vagina cannot be sufficiently stimulated, which will reduce the secretion of mucus, thereby reducing its self-cleaning ability. Pathogens are easy to multiply in the female vagina, causing vaginitis.

3. Influence on mental outlook: The normal fulfillment of sexual desire is an effective way to release sexual tension. The happiness that accompanies the fulfillment of sexual desire can produce psychological benefits. Obvious abstinence will cause inner pain, which is mainly manifested as dizziness, eccentricity, and physical symptoms such as insomnia, nightmares, dizziness, blurred vision, memory loss, gastrointestinal discomfort, etc.

4. Impact on life span: Some scientific research materials mention the long-term impact of long-term abstinence on physical and mental health. For example, women who have no sex life for a long time have rough skin, dull appearance, and are more prone to aging. The average life expectancy of single men is reduced by 12 years, while that of single women is reduced by 5 years. Not only are these women more susceptible to gynecological diseases such as pelvic inflammatory disease, but their breast cancer incidence rate is more than twice that of women with a periodic lifestyle.

5. Lead to sexual apathy: If there is no sex life for a long time, especially for perfect men and women, if the desire cannot be satisfied, the mood will also decline, and thus sexual apathy will occur. This is because the body reduces the stimulation of male hormones, which leads to a decrease in sexual desire.

6. Very easy to get sick: Ancient health books said that the unity of opposites between yang and yin is the basic law of nature. Under normal circumstances, yang and yin are balanced, and the body must also maintain a balance to stay healthy. If the yang or yin is too strong or too weak, you will get sick. Proper sexual life between husband and wife is a way to realize the yin and yang.
