Effects of Not Having Sex: What Really Happens to Your Body and Mind

Sex is often talked about as a key part of relationships, health, and emotional intimacy. But what happens if you are not having sex—whether for a few months, years, or even for life? Is it harmful to your health, or is it perfectly fine?

The truth is more nuanced. Choosing not to have sex is a personal decision and, medically speaking, there is nothing “wrong” with abstinence. However, research does show that regular sexual activity can have physical, mental, and emotional health benefits. On the other hand, long gaps in sexual activity may bring about certain changes in your body and mind, especially as you age.

In this article, we’ll explore the science-backed effects of not having sex, what may change in your body, what stays the same, and when it might be helpful to speak with a healthcare professional.
