Four things to note about sex between men and women in summer

As summer approaches, people start to dress cooler and cooler: men show off their sexy muscles, women wear thin skirts and shirts, showing off their curvaceous curves. These strong visual impacts can stimulate the sexual desire between couples. In the summer, there are more outdoor sports, and sunlight exposure will increase the body's sensitivity, allowing people to enjoy more "caress" during sex; while infrared rays can increase skin temperature, speed up blood flow throughout the body, and enhance the body's excitability. This kind of light can promote hormone effects and improve sexual function on the human body, so sexual activity increases in summer as the yang is strong. However, the hot and humid summer makes it easy for bacteria to multiply; the scorching heat can easily consume energy and damage body fluids, and sex is an intense activity, so it should be done in moderation.

Ancient sexual medicine believed that sexual activity was more active in summer.

The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, a classic work of traditional Chinese medicine, emphasizes that people should "correspond to heaven and earth, and conform to the four seasons." Such discussions are also very common in sexual intercourse. The ancients proposed the theory of "two springs, three summers, three autumns and one winter" based on the alternation of the four seasons. That is, people's physiological condition is interrelated with the changes in climate throughout the four seasons. With spring growth, summer growth, autumn harvest and winter storage, the frequency of sexual intercourse will also increase or decrease accordingly. For example, you can have sex twice every 7 days in spring, increase it to 3 times in summer, reduce it to 1 time in autumn, and try to avoid it in winter.

Summer "enthusiasm" needs moderation

Summer is also the time when heat evil is in season. Summer heat consumes energy and damages body fluids, and sexual intercourse is an intense activity, so it should be done in moderation. Most middle-aged couples are busy with work, and in the summer they have more housework, less sleep, and excessive energy consumption. Also, due to the heat, wives often refuse to have sex, which invisibly casts a shadow on the couple's relationship. Therefore, when a man has sexual impulses, he should be good at observing his wife's emotions and mentality, and try to arouse her sexual desire in order to achieve harmony and satisfaction. When elderly couples make love in the summer, they should pay attention to their physical condition. If they suffer from diseases such as high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, heart disease, etc., they should consider whether they can withstand the load of sexual intercourse on the body.

Those who experience excessive sweating, accelerated heart rate, shortness of breath, and fatigue after sexual intercourse should be more careful to exercise moderation so as to avoid aggravating the loss of energy and body fluids already caused by the summer heat. The heat and humidity in summer will affect people's physical constitution. This is what people often call "bitter summer". At this time, people are prone to symptoms of neurasthenia such as fatigue, loss of appetite, abdominal distension, palpitations, sweating, insomnia, and nightmares, all of which will cause a decrease in physical strength.

Secondly, it is hot in the summer, and the human body secretes a lot of sweat. Coupled with the excitement of sexual desire, many people will find themselves sweating profusely before even having sex. Excessive sweating will damage yin and consume qi. Middle-aged and elderly people and those with weak bodies are prone to collapse if having sex at this time. For those who are emotionally nervous or physically weak, they should also be alert to excessive sweating after sex, as it may be a sign of illness.

In order to enjoy sex in a cool environment, some people often set the air conditioner temperature very low. In fact, after a couple reaches orgasm, their pores will open wide and "gasp for air." If cold air invades at this time, the pores will "hold up the let-in sign", causing the invasion of cold air. People with low resistance will experience cold symptoms such as nasal congestion, sneezing, runny nose, and headache. Local coldness in the human body causes blood vessel constriction, and may also cause muscle soreness, soft tissue injuries, etc.

Four things to pay attention to when having sex in summer

Since ancient times, health-preserving treatises have clearly stated that during summer sex, one should pay attention to the "opposite effects of hyperactivity and excitement." This means that summer is more likely to arouse people's desires, but if one does not pay attention to moderation, the body's already accelerated metabolism will be made worse, the body will overdraw its energy, affect its vitality, and then cause other diseases.

In order to enjoy sexual intercourse without affecting health, in the hot summer, how to grasp the timing, frequency and hygiene of sexual intercourse must be determined in combination with climate characteristics, environmental factors, individual psychological and physiological conditions. Never seek temporary pleasure of sexual release and harm your body. Summer sex should pay attention to the following four points:

Eat more light food and supplement with high-quality protein, such as fish, eggs, seafood, etc. You can also add some spicy foods appropriately, such as the saying goes "eat radishes in winter and ginger in summer". Eating ginger appropriately can not only warm the stomach and dispel cold, but also nourish yang.

When the weather is hot, the human body will lose a lot of water and salt. You should drink some salty soup in time to replenish the lost electrolytes. It is best not to have sex when you are sweating too much. After sex, do not take a cold shower or drink cold drinks immediately. You should lie in bed and rest for a while, and then get up and take a warm shower.

During sexual intercourse, do not direct the air conditioner or electric fan towards the human body to avoid air-conditioning disease.

Reduce the frequency of sex appropriately and don't force it. In hot and humid weather, you need to pay more attention to the cleanliness of your genitals to avoid other discomforts caused by summer sexual activity.
