Can abstinence and late marriage preserve health?
Chinese medicine believes that desire is endless and cannot be vertical. Traditional Chinese medicine advocates abstinence and essence, not abstinence and health.

(1) It is advisable to abstain from sex after marriage. Young people are physically strong, but they must not be arrogant and indulgent. They should know moderation and not excessiveness. Exhausted and scattered because of indulgence, leading to illness and early death. The ancients once discussed the time of abstinence and the number of sexual intercourse, but there were different opinions. As far as the season is concerned, Huangdi Neijing advocates that it should be hidden in winter; Zhu Danxi emphasized that "you must be alone in summer".

(2) Advocating late marriage "Taiding Health Theory Erzhuang": "Confucius said: There are few people, and the blood gas is uncertain, so it is necessary to quit. In ancient times, men got married at the age of 30 and women got married at the age of 20. We must also observe its color strength, suppress its temperament and change it. " It shows that the ancients advocated late marriage and preserved sperm. If young people get married early, or even excrete too much, it will damage Yin qi and lead to illness or premature aging. In addition, the deficiency of yin essence can not be turned into air, which will affect mental health.

Therefore, "Shoushibaoyuan Baosheng Magazine" said: "Men who break the Yang prematurely will hurt the essence, and women who break the Yin prematurely will hurt the blood."
