My question is about intimate life after a new marriage. We have been married only a short time, and during this time we have intercourse frequently. We are both happy with this.<\/p>\n
But the elders at home say that having intercourse this often makes a man’s body weak, causes “dhatu kshaya” (loss of vital tissue), drains strength from the body and brings many problems in the future. They advise restraint. After hearing this, worry has settled in my mind, and now if I ever feel tired, the same thought comes to mind.<\/p>\n
I respect what the elders say, but I also want to know the correct scientific and Ayurvedic understanding, so that I do not have to live in false fear.<\/p>\n
My questions are:
\n– Does frequent intercourse really make a man’s body weak?
\n– What is “dhatu kshaya”, and does it really happen?
\n– How often is intercourse considered normal, is there a rule?
\n– Which signs mean restraint and rest are needed?
\n– What does Ayurveda say about excessive intercourse and seasonal restraint?
\n– What should be kept in mind in diet and routine to maintain strength?<\/p>\n
With your guidance, I will be able to lovingly explain the truth to the elders too, and we will both be able to enjoy our married life without fear, with understanding and care for our health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
