Dr. Zhao Xiaodong
Moderate sexual activity can enhance a woman's immune system and help prevent the occurrence of certain common diseases. It promotes hormonal secretion in women, helping maintain endocrine balance, thereby slowing the aging process and keeping the skin in good condition. Regular sexual activity can also improve sleep quality, reduce stress and anxiety, and enhance overall psychological well-being. Furthermore, sex is an important way to strengthen emotional bonds and build intimacy between partners, fostering deeper understanding and trust. All these benefits are based on moderate and healthy sexual activity. Excessive sexual activity may have negative effects on a woman’s physical health. Therefore, while enjoying the benefits of sex, women should also pay attention to controlling frequency and intensity to maintain physical health and comfort.
