Brief Answer:
Consultation

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

Like other activities of life, having intercourse is completely natural for any person capable of doing it and no harms associated with it. The number of intercourse often depends on the age of person and it is believed that 5-15 intercourse per week is completely normal for individuals in their 20s which decreases to 10 per week for persons by they reach 40 years of age.

In other terms it can be stated that sex is also alike a physical activity for body and can be done as far as your body allows it without compromising any aspect of life.

I hope this helps you.
Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.
Thanks and regards.

Brief Answer:
Follow up.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for follow up.

As suggested above sex is not only fun it is healthy. Any amount of sex which does not invoke guilt in you is healthy. The available literature (although scarce) is clear to state that having sex does not affect your testosterone negatively and so the muscle mass.

Regarding the exact number per week I feel you need to mention your age and what you feel normal times sex/masturbation per week. This is important because it all depends on your stamina and inclination toward sexual activity.

I hope this helps you.

Brief Answer:
I think this is rationale

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for reverting back to me.

As stated in first answer your stamina is better than any person of your age (most people after forty find it difficult to do it on regular basis) and it is appropriate to engage in sex at least 2-3 times per week while approaching 50 years of age. I feel your stamina is appropriate and you can practice sex/masturbation 3-7 times per week.

I hope this helps you.
Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.
