Question

Is it normal for couples to not have sexual intercourse together for a month?

Answer

In most cases, from both a physiological and health-promoting perspective, a healthy young couple should aim for about three times of sexual intercourse per week; a mature couple, one to two times per week is not excessive; for couples in their 40s and 50s, one sexual encounter per week is appropriate; and for healthy elderly couples, sexual activity should not be abstained from.
