Dr. Yang Ziqi
Squats, as a common strength training exercise, can indeed be helpful for improving sexual function to some extent.
Squats can strengthen the muscles of the thighs and buttocks, while also enhancing lower limb stability and coordination. The strength of these muscle groups is associated with improved sexual function, as strong leg and gluteal muscles help enhance overall body strength and endurance, thereby indirectly affecting sexual performance.
However, squats alone cannot directly resolve all sexual function issues. If there are serious sexual dysfunction problems, it is recommended to seek medical advice promptly.
