“Having sex when you are sick is very healthy” — Medical doctor says
A video circulating on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) has stirred reactions after a medical doctor shared a controversial view about intimacy during illness.
In the viral clip, the doctor advised that engaging in sexual activity while sick could be beneficial, claiming it may even speed up recovery.
Doctor’s Claim Sparks Debate
In his words, the doctor said, “Don’t let anyone deceive you having sex when you are sick is very very healthy. As a matter of fact it can even fast track healing which means it can make you get better so quick.”
He explained further that the body releases certain substances during sexual activity, which he believes can help improve health conditions.
According to him, “Because there are certain things called endorphins that are being released and these things can relieve you from certain kind of inflammations.”
The doctor also noted that his message may not apply to everyone, especially those who are not in relationships.
He added, “I know those people that are single will not relate to what i’m saying but if you’re not single please do well to try this and you’ll see the outcome i’ll see you next time.”
