While “sex is a source of pleasure and vitality and it’s natural to have a strong drive for it, if you find that you look for sex compulsively, you may be using sex as an outlet for something else.”
They say you can never get enough of a good thing. This might be wrong when it comes to sex. Yes, there are actually physical side effects of having too much sex.
Sex experts have revealed that one or both partners can experience rashes, irritation, or even genital micro-tears as a result of too much getting down.
Another way a person can feel like they are overdoing it is if the partner’s sex drive outmatches theirs. Appeasing and pleasing a partner’s high sexual appetite can make you feel like you are having too much sex. One or more partners may feel overwhelmed by the expectation to perform sexually more than the other and this can cause withdrawal and resentment.
A sex expert, Madeleine Castellanos, M.D said “if stuff is not getting done – like cleaning the house, going to work, or taking care of your basic needs—in order to have sex, then it’s probably too much sex.”
And if the thing you’re not doing is working on your relationship – subbing in makeup sex for the tough talks you should be having—then you might be getting it on too often. “Using sex as a way to resolve problems in the relationship in lieu of talking about them might be a way that a couple uses sex to avoid the actual work of the relationship,” says Castellanos.
