Although most doctors report that abstinence from sex is harmful for both men and women, there are at least six reasons that indicate its benefits. This is how people who practice complete renunciation of sex (celibacy) cope with their desire and, one might even say, lust, which, in their opinion, physically weakens the body.
This is exactly the point of view of a centenarian living in Hong Kong. Celebrating his 107th birthday, he quite sincerely stated that he would not have lived so many years if he had not abstained from sex. Once a person wins this struggle, he becomes much stronger.
The benefits of abstaining from intimate relationships are known to all professional athletes. Quite often they are forced to completely exclude sexual contacts before competitions that are important for their career. This greatly increases their chances of winning.
German skier Ronnie Ackermann, silver medalist of the Olympic Games in Salt Lake City, also thinks so. By the way, there is one significant trend in sports that distinguishes men and women. If in the first case abstinence is beneficial, then for women, a vibrant sex life on the eve of the competition, on the contrary, helps them win.
Self-control 2
Here it all starts with teaching yourself your loved one (beloved) to restrain sexual impulses. And only then, having learned to control one of the most ancient instincts - the instinct of procreation, does a person gain complete control over all his actions and deeds.
The emergence of such strong control is quite naturally followed by an increased sense of responsibility, endurance and consciousness. All these qualities can directly contribute to both career growth and the growth of one’s own personality.
Painful manifestations of chronic prostatitis
The painful phase can be of infectious or non-infectious origin. Young men are susceptible to the infectious form after infection with sexually transmitted diseases. Symptoms are manifested by burning and pain in the urethra, accompanying urination, aching pain in the testicles and perineum, radiating to the lower abdomen and lumbar region. Some patients have aching joints, a dull, nagging pain is felt in them. A rectal examination is painful.
The non-infectious form affects older men, which is associated with low activity, hypothermia, prolonged sexual abstinence and stagnant processes. Non-infectious prostatitis is characterized by lumbar pain in the perineum, as well as in the pelvis and scrotum. The pain of an erased, aching nature occurs suddenly and also passes. Pain in chronic prostatitis is characterized by periodic manifestations without any apparent reason. The process of ejaculation is accompanied by pain.
No risk3
Sex addiction in some cases can be simply invincible. This is what can sometimes cause a person to harm his own health. How? Yes, it’s very simple, if there is no permanent partner, and the body is simply bursting with lust, the person begins an urgent search for a “partner” (tsy) for a sexual marathon.
The consequence is a casual partner and a high risk of contracting a sexually transmitted disease. Moreover, this applies equally to overly sexually active men and women. The difference is that women have an additional risk factor – unwanted pregnancy. After all, a pack of condoms that is so necessary at this very moment will not always be at hand.
What is better for older men - more often or less often?
While scientists are figuring it out, men are acting in accordance with their own desires and capabilities.
Abstinence is beneficial
A group of sociologists from the universities of Michigan and Chicago (Michigan State University, University of Chicago) tried to find out whether there is a connection between the intensity of sexual activity of older men and their health. The researchers (Linda J. Waite, Shannon Shen, Donna H. Wang) led by Ms. Hui Liu (I won’t risk repeating her name) used data collected during a large national project, the National Social Life, Health and Aging Project (NSHAP). , in which 2,204 people aged 57 to 85 years were examined. The results, which can be found in detail in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior, showed that there was a connection. And not very good.
It turned out that men who have sex once or twice a week more often, according to researchers, are more likely to have problems with the cardiovascular system compared to those who have sex less often.
Scientists believe that due to intense sexual activity, older men overexert themselves, trying to obtain sexual satisfaction, which becomes more and more difficult to achieve over the years.
According to the Americans, the heart can suffer from intense sex life.
Surely there is some kind of optimum. That is, a more or less safe frequency of intimate contacts - so that both pleasure and health are not undermined. But Ms. Lee and her colleagues, unfortunately, do not give any recommendations on this matter.
By the way, mature ladies do not have to worry about their health. On the contrary, frequent sex is only good for them. At least every day.
The more often, the better
The conclusions of American sociologists radically contradict the experience of the famous French doctor Frederic Saldmann. His long-term practice has shown that 12 ejaculations per month reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases by 50 percent. In men, of course. And 21 ejaculations per month - again for them - reduces the risk of prostate cancer by a third.
And doctors advise not to abstain.
Saldmann reassures even single people: there is no big difference - in terms of the healing effect - whether ejaculation is achieved with a partner or independently. However, the doctor warns women in this regard: “Those who have little sex are more susceptible to breast cancer compared to those who have sex regularly.”
According to Saldmann, the hormone released during sexual intercourse prevents the development of this type of cancer.
The doctor offers wellness tips in his new book, “You Are the Best Medicine.”
INSTEAD OF A COMMENT
What do our Chinese comrades think about this?
A doctor with many years of experience is, of course, more trustworthy than some sociologists. But the statistics they analyzed cannot be completely dismissed. So what should we do? Partial - in the sense of sex? Or turn to abstinence?
This is what the Chinese, wise by many thousands of years of experience, advise in a legendary treatise called “Secret Instructions for the Jade Chambers,” in which a certain Most Pure Virgin (aka the Chosen One, simply Pure) teaches the secret sexual wisdom of a certain Yellow Emperor:
“People are powerful and weak in body, divided by age into old and young. And everyone, depending on the personal characteristics of qi breathing and strength, should not strain too much when achieving orgasm. For if orgasm is achieved by excessive tension, it will certainly cause harm to the body. Therefore, when a man is twenty years old and his body is strong, he can ejaculate twice a day, and when at this age the body is weak, he can ejaculate once a day. At thirty years of age, if you are in good health, you can do it once a day, and if you are in poor health, once every two days. At the age of forty, if you are in good health, you can do it once every three days, and if you are in poor health, once every four days. At fifty years old, with good health, you can do it once every five days; if you have little strength - only once every ten days. At sixty years of age, in good health, you can ejaculate once every ten days; and if there is little strength - only once every twenty days. At seventy years old, if your health is good, you can do it once every thirty days, but if you’re in poor health, you can’t do it at all.”
The East hides many secrets, including intimate ones.
The ancient Chinese generally called for preserving the seed - that is, performing an act in such a way as not to spill it. They saw this as a source of health, longevity, and even immortality.
Here is one of the dialogues touching on such an amazing practice:
The Yellow Emperor said: “I want to know: what will happen if, while performing an act, you do not achieve the final result?”
The Pure Virgin answered: “If you have not shed your seed in one act, then your breath will increase and your strength will increase.
If, after performing two acts, you have not spilled the seed, then your ears and eyes will become sensitive and clear.
If in three acts you have not poured out the seed, you will be cured of many diseases.
If in four acts the semen is not poured out, then the five spirits of the organism will find peace.
If you have not ejaculated semen in five acts, then the blood vessels will be filled and strengthened.
If you have not ejaculated semen in six acts, your lower back and back will become strong and strong.
If you have not ejaculated semen in seven acts, then strength will increase in your buttocks and thighs.
If in eight acts the seed is not poured out, then light will be born in the whole organism.
If you haven’t shed your seed in nine acts, then your life will last forever.”
BY THE WAY
Chinese method of treating impotence
The chosen maiden asked: “What signs exist to determine male strength and weakness?”
Peng Tzu (Taoist, the legendary Chinese centenarian who, according to legend, lived 834 years) answered her:
“When the yang substance is strong, communicating with the chi breath, then the jade stem is hot, and the seed of the yang substance is thick and concentrated. Weakness comes in five varieties.
In the first case, the seed erupts and comes out, which indicates disturbances in qi breathing.
In the second case, the seed is cool and there is little of it, which indicates a violation of the flesh.
In the third case, the seed deteriorates and gives off an unpleasant odor, which indicates a violation of the tendons.
In the fourth case, the seed comes out very weakly, and not in an energetic burst, which indicates bone disorders.
In the fifth case, as a result of weakness of the substance, the member does not rise, which indicates a poor condition of the body as a whole. All these violations occur if the act is not performed smoothly and slowly, but abruptly and violently.
There is the following method of treating the disease. You need to perform the act without climaxing, then in less than a hundred days your breathing and strength will strengthen many times over.”
(From the ancient Chinese treatise “Secret Instructions for the Jade Chambers.”)
Impotence, it turns out, can be treated with sex. True, very sophisticated.
Strengthening immunity 4
Contrary to the opinion of the majority, there is a directly opposite theory that sex does not strengthen, but, on the contrary, reduces immunity. Accordingly, abstaining from sex helps to increase the body's protective functions.
According to this judgment, a person who refuses intimate pleasures will even get sick with the flu less often. Other studies suggest that when people give up sex, they get better memory in return.

The main functional load for maintaining a man's potency falls on the prostate. It is also responsible for the production of seminal fluid.
When the prostate gland is inflamed, sexual life undergoes some changes, as men believe that stress on the organ is harmful.
To understand whether abstinence from sexual intercourse is indicated for prostatitis, it is important to study the mechanism of the prostate gland.
Effect of age11
In addition, the age of a man deprived of intimate pleasure also influences the harm of sexual abstinence. If this happens in youth, they, even experiencing temporary discomfort, can subsequently return to Big Sex without any problems. But if you have to abstain already in adulthood, the consequences can be disastrous.
Moreover, the older a man is, the worse the consequences await him. If at the age of forty everything can end with premature ejaculation, then at the age of 50 the experimenter can expect complete impotence.
As for the weaker sex, for women, abstinence often leads to neuroses associated with a subconscious feeling of one’s own uselessness. Often it was abstinence that caused loneliness and, as a consequence, the grumpiness and grumpiness of old maids, about which jokes are usually made.
So, you shouldn’t deliberately refuse sexual relations. The harmony of intimate relationships has been and remains an integral part of the personal life of every person.
Types of abstinence
Let's start by understanding the types of abstinence:
- Voluntary or forced. Forced abstinence is considered abstinence that occurs due to health problems, stress, absence of a partner or other personal reasons. Voluntary abstinence is a conscious refusal of sexual gratification based on religious beliefs or as a way to preserve testosterone, which is necessary to prepare for serious competitions. So Muhammad Ali practiced voluntary abstinence before serious fights.
- Total or partial . Total abstinence is characterized not only by the lack of sexual activity, but also by a man’s lack of interest in it. Partial abstinence in the absence of sexual activity is characterized by the presence of nocturnal emissions.
- Temporary and long-term . Temporary involves abstinence for a limited period of time, for example during a period of illness, when the body needs strength to recover. Long-term abstinence involves not having sexual intercourse for more than a few months or years.
How to feel better
A urologist will tell you how to relieve an attack of prostatitis during a personal appointment.
For this purpose, painkillers are used for local and general use. Painkillers and anti-inflammatory rectal suppositories are effective as local drugs.
A warm bath and physical exercises aimed at activating blood flow in the genitourinary organs help to temporarily relieve pain due to prostatitis at home, in combination with painkillers.
Pain is a reaction to the accumulation of excess secretion in the gland, which cannot be released due to blockage of the ducts. Pressure increases in the middle of the prostate, causing minor discomfort. When the condition is advanced, the pain becomes severe.
Painkillers will relieve pain, but will not get rid of the inflammation that caused it. There is no point in using them for a long time, because they only relieve pain for a short time.
Unpleasant sensations signal a disease that requires complex treatment. If only the pain syndrome is relieved, then this is not effective and leads to an increase in inflammation, the complication of which will be a purulent process.
It is necessary to contact a specialist who will advise how to relieve pain in any form of prostatitis. A therapeutic course of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory medications is prescribed, and physiotherapy is also recommended.
In the acute form of prostatitis, antibiotics can alleviate the condition for 2–4 days.
Treatment of prostatitis with the use of antispasmodics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that relieve pain is effective. They are prescribed intravenously, orally and in the form of suppositories. Physiotherapy includes hirudotherapy, acupuncture, laser treatment, and magnetic therapy. Massage of the prostate gland promotes the outflow of pus and eliminates congestion. Stimulation through massage increases the effectiveness of medication during an attack of prostatitis and speeds up the treatment process at home.
Causes of pain with prostatitis
Some diseases are associated with painful sensations:
Pathologies of the rectum
Diseases of the rectum are associated with the appearance of pain that has the same manifestation and location as with prostatitis. They are often confused due to their close anatomical position.
Prostate cysts
Failures in the secretory function of the prostate gland or obstruction of the excretory ducts cause the development of abnormalities.
Growth of neoplasms
The appearance of tumors in the gland, which often affects men over 45–50 years of age. Neoplasms are benign or malignant in nature, which is reflected in the general clinical picture of the patient.
Inflammation in the parenchyma
Prostatitis is considered one of the forms of complications after infection of the urethra. Acute or chronic inflammation of the prostate parenchyma has negative consequences for men's health.
Stones in the excretory ducts
With a chronic recurrent disease, stone formation and blockage of the excretory ducts are possible. A characteristic sign of pathology is pain in the prostate during arousal.
At what point does pain appear?
The appearance of pain with prostatitis is spontaneous. Painful discomfort occurs at any time of the day or night and also disappears suddenly.
Unfortunately, pain is chronic and worsens in the following cases:
- Urination.
- Genital contact.
- Defecation.
- Erection.
- Sexual abstinence.
- Physical overload from work.
- Stressful conditions.
- Contrasting change in body temperature during hardening.
- After sexual intercourse.
- Smoking and drinking alcohol.
Regular and periodic pain causes anxiety and exhausts a man. Some try to relieve pain, which leads to a worsening of the condition, because the inflammation persists and progresses. A comprehensive systemic treatment of prostatitis is necessary to eliminate the causes of pain.
Ways to eliminate pain
Of course, there are a lot of methods for ascetics, there are exercises for those who have taken a vow of celibacy, and so on. But for a normal man it is enough to improve his sex life, ending each contact with ejaculation, and the pain will go away. The period of subsidence of the syndrome is 4-6 hours. If a pathology is detected, the problem can only be eliminated with the help of doctors.
Advice! If the testicles often hurt, but there is no normal ejaculation, then a simple exercise to relieve tension and normalize blood flow in the pelvic organs will help: squats, running, fast walking, swimming - all this will help improve blood supply and relieve pain.
