Sexual frequency varies from person to person and primarily depends on factors such as the physical health, age, and emotional well-being of both partners. Young adults aged approximately 20–30 typically experience relatively strong libido, making 3–4 sexual encounters per week generally appropriate. After age 30, physical fitness gradually declines, and sexual frequency should be adjusted to about 2–3 times per week. Beyond age 40, sexual activity should not exceed twice weekly.
